Yes seen that one.

Tyrone Power's father attended the same school as I did, Hampton in Middlesex, along with cover illustrator of the Patrick O'Brian novels Geoff Hunt and Queen's Brian May!

Gotta love those old movies… I do believe I have a copy of that one around here somewhere…

I think seeing this on TV as a kid contributed to the growth of my interest in colonials.

Saw this when it first came out and when I got home afterwards there was a box of Britians toy soldiers, (Forign Legioners, I think), waiting for me as a bithday present. Turned me into a Tyrone Power fan too. Great memories of that movie. I have never seen it since though. Thanks Tango, for a pleasent walk down memory lane. John Miller
