    • Trivia
      Marlon Brando was scheduled to co-star but bowed out after reading the script, which was not to his liking. He was replaced by Frank Sinatra.
    • Goofs
      In the night scene when they are camped amidst the windmills, the smoke from the fires just goes up and hangs there but the windmills are spinning madly the entire time.
    • Quotes

      General Jouvet: How these Spanish love their moment of truth - to drench the ground with their blood - to die. Why?

      Sermaine: Probably because it is their ground, General.

    What were they thinking?
    Direct from the What Were They Thinking files comes this bloated pageant of staggeringly foolish proportions. All about getting a cannon through battles and assorted other nonsensical issues this overripe piece of twaddle has a few things in its favor, nice scenery and beautiful color photography. They are outweighed however by the inert direction of the usually competent Kramer and even more by the complete miscasting of the principle actors. Sophia is gorgeous and was just starting in American films so her being shoved into whatever was available at the moment no matter how unsuitable can at least explain her presence here. Cary Grant who would seem a natural in period films actually looks rather absurd and is stiff as a board, he apparently felt the same way and after this often referred to this film with mocking scorn. He and Sophia, who became involved during the making of this stinker, would be much more properly and happily paired the next year in Houseboat a delightful comedy which is the place to see them together, not here. Worst of all is Frank Sinatra preposterously cast as a Spanish freedom fighter with both an atrocious accent and wig. He is simply dreadful. Worth watching only to see how an A level film with major stars and a respected director can go wrong in pretty much every aspect.
