For the 50th Anniversary of the filming of "Oeil pour Oeil we do a little celebration with
a new Location report about this marvelous movie and its fantastic photography of landscapes and desert flavor. We finally found the place where they built a "Cable railway" over a deep canyon for this movie 50 years ago. And its still the same impressing place like it is in the movie.
No traffic, no people,...just silence and your imagination of the movie scenes.
I really saw Curd Jürgens on a shaky ride over the Canyon. Capt.Douglas, 2007.
