Rare "A" film from Tempean Pictures is actually pretty good - a long range patrol movie, with various Brit types. There's tired conflict between casual Michael Craig and by the book John Gregson, but everyone can act - there's also Richard Attenborough, Percy Herbert. Location filming in the desert helps.
The addition of a female character would have too. Weird how there was a bunch of desert war films around this time eg No Time to Die, Ice Cold in Alex.
Vincent Ball plays an Aussie.
The movie isn't bad yet frustration with continually playing war films led to Craig and Attenborough making The Angry Silence.
