So, obviously I'm not skeptical of the claim that the fascists mistreated the indigenous population of Libya, but a good 3/4 of this film seems to have nothing else on it's mind. It could be establishing characters or plot lines, but basically it just wallows in a series of atrocities. It's not a terrible film ... how could it be with Irene Papas, Andrew Kier, John Gielgud and even Gastone Moschin from "The Godfather, Part II" showing up in supporting roles
