Charge of the Lancers (1954)


Columbia Pictures
Directed by William Castle
My rating: BOMB
IMDb
(DVD, Sony Screen Classics by Request)

Cheap Sam Katzman-William Castle production that pits Russians against Englishman posing as gypsies in the Crimean War. The characters are little more than cardboard stereotypes and the sets obvious California back lots. Paulette Goddard as the gypsy woman Tanya is not only one of her worst performances, but one of the worst performances by anyone I've seen in quite some time.
