    This is quite a fun adventure story that sees the Duke of a terrorised land try to recruit the services of "Mirko" (Yves Vincent) to combat these marauding, red-caped, soldiers reputed to be the ghosts of some murdered men seeking vengeance on all. His price - well the Princess "Cristina" (Scilla Gabel) has to agree to be his wife. Needless to say, she's not too hot on the idea but luckily for her, a saviour might just have appeared in the masked guise of "Paolo" (Tony Russel). Yes, it has shades of "Zorro" to it, even down to masks offering the most meagre of disguises that even a blind person could see through; but there is plenty of action and for a change "Cristina" gets a chance to do some fighting too. The production is colourful and quickly paced and the English language dubbing no worse than in many others of the genre. Rarely seen nowadays, it's still just about worth a watch if you like the theme and aim low.

The Voyage of Captain Fracassa

Serafina, Pulcinella and Isabella are three lusty, beautiful members of a traveling theatrical troupe touring the French countryside in the 17th century, leaving in their wake a crop of broken hearts. This picaresque romantic comedy is based on the 1863 novel Le Capitaine Fracasse by Theophile Gauthier. In the story, the company stops at a castle owned by the scruffy young Baron de Sigognac, who is deeply smitten with the charms of the middle-aged (and somewhat morose) beauty Serafina. He decides to travel with the company, and Serafina perversely tries to get him to woo the youngest of the company, the newly bereaved Isabella.

On the Arabian Peninsula in the 1930s, two warring leaders come face to face. The victorious Nesib, Emir of Hobeika, lays down his peace terms to rival Amar, Sultan of Salmaah. The two men agree that neither can lay claim to the area of no man’s land between them called The Yellow Belt. In return, Nesib adopts Amar’s two boys Saleeh and Auda as a guarantee against invasion. Twelve years later, Saleeh and Auda have grown into young men. Saleeh, the warrior, itches to escape his gilded cage and return to his father’s land. Auda cares only for books and the pursuit of knowledge. One day, their adopted father Nesib is visited by an American from Texas. He tells the Emir that his land is blessed with oil and promises him riches beyond his wildest imagination. Nesib imagines a realm of infinite possibility, a kingdom with roads, schools and hospitals all paid for by the black gold beneath the barren sand. There is only one problem. The precious oil is located in the Yellow Belt.
