Stewart the Dictator
by richardchatten2025-12-02
8/10

"Filmed on picturesque Yugoslav locations by British veteran British Don Chaffey. Although long languishing in obscurity it provides the pleasure of seeing two heavyweight actors squaring up: Stewart Granger - cast as well as he ever was -as a charismatic dictator in a white suit, with Robert Ryan providing the voice of conscience as the cynical American reporter...."
