A noir classic this week. Edmond O'Brien is one of my favorite old-time actors, and he's quite good in this one.

7.5/10

I too liked the movie. And I agree with you about Edmond O’Brien (another victim of Alzheimer’s).

Different movie, but great performance by O'Brien in 1969.

Watched “Khartoum” on TCM - way back in 1880 a megalomaniac wishing to spread Islam throughout the mideast until he could worship in the mosques in Cairo and Constantinople laid siege to Sudan Khartoum, murdering a remaining small group of Egyptians and Englishmen led by British General Gordon - because they were infidels they had to die - it’s been going on for hundreds of years, but dunces like Obama and the left just can’t seem to ubderstand what it’s all about.....

I can’t understand how Edmond O’Brien got to be a movie star. IMHO, he sucks.
