(1962)
Regisseur:
Ronald NeameSchauspieler:
Yul Brynner, Madlyn Rhue, Sal Mineo, Jack Warden, James Mason, Anthony Caruso, Jay Novello, Leonard StrongIn einem Ölstaat im Nahen Osten: Revolutionsführer Sharif wird von der korrupten Regentschaft zum Tode verurteilte. Doch kurz vor der Exekution kann ihn sein treuer Anhänger Ahmed vom Schafott retten. Sie stehlen gemeinsam einen Ambulanzwagen und beginnen eine strapaziöse Flucht vor ihren Verfolgern durch die Wüste.
Yul Brynner plays political leader Sharif who is sprung from a police van on his way to a firing squad by young loyalists led by Sal Mineo. Yul and the other prisoners kidnap an ambulance and head into the Arabian desert with the police in hot pursuit. All the performances are magnificent: Sal Mineo showing his acting talents, Jack Warden in a wiseguy performance as an employee of Zahrain oil who was involved in embezzlement, Anthony Caruso as a slimy psychotic and the underrated Madlyn Rhue as a nurse who becomes emotionally involved in the proceedings.
