Western Box Set 1 (Legends Of The Lost / Soldier Blue / Barquero)

This collection brings together three classic westerns. Includes: Legends Of The Lost, Soldier Blue and Barquero.

Legends Of The Lost: Told against the sweeping panoramas of the Sahara desert, this star-studded epic features an exotic mix of action, suspense, and romance. Famed for its "stunning" location cinematography, Legend of the Lost delivers a caravan of excitement- with the indomitable John Wayne leading the way. Wayne is Joe January, a hard drinking, hard living guide. When Paul Bonnard (Rossano Brazzi) hires him to find his father and a legendary lost treasure, the two set out into the isolated wasteland of the North African desert. Joining them is Dita (Sophia Loren), a prostitute desperate to find a new life who comes between both men as they battle for survival.... and their souls.

Soldier Blue: Honus Gent, a U.S. soldier devoted to his duty, and Cresta, a white woman who had lived with the Cheyenne for two years, are the only two survivors of a slaughter committed by the Cheyennes on a cavalry group. Together they are hoping to stay alive until they reach the cavalry's base camp. As they travel, Honus feels a growing affection for Cresta, but he is disgusted with her anti-American beliefs as she has more sympathy for Indians than for the U.S. government. They arrive at the cavalry outpost on the eve of an attack on a Cheyenne village, where Honus will learn who has been telling him the truth.

Barquero: A ruthless gang of thuggish outlaws butcher the settlers of a small Colorado town taking with them anything they can get their hands on. Leaving a bloody trail of death behind them, they head for the Mexican Border. Their only obstacles are a notoriously lethal river and mysterious, hard as nails, shotgun wielding boat owner called Travis Barquero (Lee Van Cleef), and he ain't going nowhere. A Sergio Leone-inspired western from legendary director Gordon Douglas (In Like Flint, Stagecoach), starring cult seventies icons Lee Van Cleef (The Good, The Bad And The Ugly), Warren Oats (The Wild Bunch), Forrest Tucker (The Night They Raided Minsky's) and Kerwin Mathews (Battle Beneath The Sea).
