Meri S @mschroeder Jun 30, 2026 An epic portrayal of the Italian military’s vicious attack on Libya in the 1920’s and Omar al-Mukhtar’s leadership to attempt to keep his country free from the fascists. Not sure it’s a movie for everyone, but I personally walked away learning about this part of history I’ve just started diving into. Probably more so for history and movie buffs. Great cinematography and production.

Go figure….. See more Dodo D @RT40894128 Oct 7, 2025 Must-see movie, it’s educational for all walks of life. See more John H @JLHIII Feb 7, 2024 Very good epic movie about the Lybian resistance to Italian occupations. Very good story and acting by Anthony Quinn. Good action buy a bit long but he resisted occupation for 20+ years! See more Emilio T @MilloTPue Jul 18, 2020 Between 2.5 and 3 stars. The movie is so-so, but it is original to talk about a conflict very few have spoken, and the great actings from Anthony Quinn and Oliver Reed have a weigh in the balance.
