...clue to the character of Marcus; but the smoke screens dreamed up by Writer-Director Melville Shavelson are nearly impenetrable. As Marcus' unhappy wife, Angie Dickinson stays at home, smiling through her fears and reminiscing in murky flashbacks. As the hero's lively helpmate in the Haganah, Senta Berger manages to make half-baked fiction look like a whole girl. Guest Star John Wayne, perhaps inadvertently, turns his role as a Pentagon overlord into an uncanny impersonation of President Johnson, while Luther Adler, sporting a ludicrous Ben-Gurion hairdo, pretends to be an Israeli leader named Zion...

...this has a familiar purr. The beautiful women now have names like Brooke Hayward and Senta Berger, but the whole scene recalls the young Boyer of Algiers, the fathomless possibilities of Hedy Lamarr, and the line he is legendary for whispering to her: "Come wiz me to zee casbah." Actually, there was no such line in the movie, nor in any other movie Boyer ever made. It came from an old comedy-radio show. But Boyer wears it gracefully...
