Two-time Oscar® winner Anthony Quinn (Lawrence Of Arabia) stars as Omar Mukhtar, the brilliant Bedouin leader who waged a 20-year guerilla war against the invading Italian tank armies led by General Rodolfo ‘The Butcher’ Graziani (Oliver Reed, Gladiator) and increasingly furious Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini (Academy Award® winner Rod Steiger, In The Heat Of The Night). Oscar® winner John Gielgud (Arthur) co-stars with a cast of thousands in this action-packed epic produced and directed by Moustapha Akkad (The Message) that remains one of the most provocative historical dramas of our time.
