Movies starring Anthony Steel

The Wooden Horse (1950)

101 mins     Drama, War      

"The Wooden Horse" came out over a decade before "The Great Escape" but it is a great companion movie; not only because it is also based on a true prison escape but is also set in the same prison camp Stalag Luft III. You can...

Emergency Call (1952)

90 mins     Thriller      

As I watched "Emergency Call" a smile came across my face as I reckon if someone pitched this medical drama now most studios would not be interested with maybe the exception of Lifetime. But that would be now and whilst I can...

Storm Over the Nile (1955)

107 mins     Adventure , Drama, Romance      

Don't be fooled by this movie being called "Storm Over the Nile" because in reality it is "The Four Feathers" a remake of the 1939 movie of the same name. In fact it is not just a remake as director Terence Young teamed up wi...

The Black Tent (1956)
