A rare treat for fans of Omar Sharif (dies at 83, Requiescat in pace), fans of Afghanistan, and fans of equines. There's a hilarious scene with a thin sheep at a sheep fighting contest (one of many "sports" Afghans like to watch and bet on). A nomad (David Porath from The Odessa File (1974)) brings along a thin, deformed sheep to fight a big ram.
Great acting as always from Omar Sharif. Leigh Taylor-Young is hot as a gypsy witch. Jack Palance adds a fatherly touch as well.
Also recommended: Bite the Bullet (1975) The Man From Snowy River (1982) Eagle's Wing (1979) The Black Stallion (1979).
A definitely unusual and unique film.
