Plot

During the Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish guerrilla leader, Miguel, and a British naval officer, Anthony Trumbull, drag an enormous cannon across Spain to attack the French garrison at Ávila. Along the way, Trumbull and Miguel compete for the love of the fiery Juana. Based on C.S. Forester's novel The Gun.

Sinekatalog’s take

A big adventure whose real star is the giant cannon dragged across Spain, with Grant, Sinatra and Loren as an odd trio. The scale impresses more than the acting, and the film is long.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
