Station six Sahara

[stevie boy]

I saw this little gem when I was about 15 in 1970. I quite frankly have never forgot it. It was the most erotic film that I have ever seen, although if I saw it now I may wonder why I got so worked up about it. It just hinted of steamy sex, anyone else have any memories or thoughts about this one??

I saw this at the Plaza, Regent Street, at a highly impressionable age. I would have clocked it as a major cult classic, except that it's hardly known at all but has all the right ingredients - a major, iconoclastic director in Seth Holt, Hollywood's sexiest siren of the age, Carroll Baker, and the hot, sweaty, torpid setting of Sahara. Even the staid MFB was impressed - "at least this is filming with the courage of its own cliches," it said. When I looked up that quote, I saw that Bryan Forbes had scripted it. I'd forgotten that, perhaps even never knew that. He doesn't mention it in either of his memoirs. Much too smutty, perhaps.

thanks Adrian,thought I was imagining this film, certainly a sweaty production.
