Escape from Zahrain (1961)
Director: Ronald Neame
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Turgid desert-trek drama, featuring Brynner and various bottle-tanned cohorts as escapee political prisoners in an Arab oil state. A predictable combination of the woeful exotic urges of both director Neame (Mister Moses) and screenwriter Robin Estridge (the dire Frankie Avalon vehicle Drums of Africa).Author: PT
