Quiz
Paul Robeson considered this film one of his most positive accomplishments in projecting a screen image of a Black man with courage, honor, self-sacrifice, and intelligence who achieves success and happiness.

Blooper
Jericho has a cross, presumably in red, at the entrance to his clinic. Seeing as he is in a predominately Muslim country, the symbol should be a Red Crescent - first used during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78.

Citazioni
Capt. Mack: I know its tough, all right; but, war is tough, isn't it?
Cpl. Jericho Jackson: Yes, war. But, I want to learn how to kill? No, but they taught me and taught me until my arms ached sinking steel into sandbags. These hands that I want to use to heal, to save life, to give life, turned into hands for killing.

Well-made fantasy tale

Great entertainment with several interesting aspects. Tailored for Robeson's self-preferred Black Superman persona, this movie has scenes of Robeson ordering Wallace Ford ("Old Pa" from Patch of Blue) to tend to his camel, and Robeson commanding an army into battle. All this is done with a genial sense of humor that keeps it fun! Robeson is a man on the run, who is also a college-educated doctor. Remember, this was 20 years before Sidney came along.
