Run for the Sun 1956 HD. Richard Widmark, Trevor Howard & Jane Greer

In Central America, an action-adventure novelist and a journalist for a magazine find themselves at the mercy of Nazi war criminals. Director: Roy Boulting Writers: Roy Boulting, Richard Connell (story “The Most Dangerous Game“) | 1 more credit » Stars: Richard Widmark, Trevor Howard, Jane Greer |Many film-critics said that this was the first re-make of the most dangerous game. While I can see some similarities I can safely assume that this film was the product of the writers own imagination. TMDG was about a Count on a Pacific Island who hunted men who became shipwrecked on his beach. In this movie Richard Widmark and his honey (Jane Greer) crash land on Trevor Howard’s island when his plane’s navigation screws up. At first Howard seems hospitable but Widmark soon learns (and remembers) that Howard is a Nazi avoiding war-crime charges in the US. And he is even taking advantage of the natives. Soon Widmark and Greer are on the run thru the jungle with Howard and his goons on their heels. This does bare some resemblance to TMDG but only by coincidence. There are some cool moments in this film, such as Widmark firing a bullet with a hammer and the scene where his is creeping all over Howard’s plantation is quite tense. Greer was also surprisingly attractive. I’m not really into 50’s fashion but she had a nice body and ass. She was also quite tough. She didn’t moan and whine either, which made her character cooler and unlike most other female characters of the time. If you can catch this movie I reckon that you should watch it because it is quite enjoyable. And it is only slightly similar to The Most Dangerous Game.
