The Wind and the Lion a once an favorite movie - 727Sky - 02-01-2025
When this movie first came out I enjoyed the movie greatly. It does have moments of pure joy and eternal laughter.
Quote:Sean Connery stars—and breaks free of Bond forever (well, Never Say Never…) as desert brigand chieftain Mulai Ahmed er Raisuli who kidnaps an American widow, Eden Pedecaris (Candice Bergen) in a bid to embarrass the Sultan of Morocco. In doing so, he arouses the ire and interest of an internationally ambitious Commander in Chief, Theodore Roosevelt (Brian Keith). John Milius both scripts and directs, bending true-life fact to serve his storytelling craft and shapes history into a spirited screen legend. Jerry Goldsmith’s lauded and lofty score adds to the film’s wonder.

Title reminded of the 1958 film "The Young Lions". Setting reminded me of "March or Die".
