The Southern Star (1969) Stills – George Segal + Ursula Andress + Orson Welles + Ian Hendry + Harry Andrews
The Southern Star (1969): George Segal, Ursula Andress, Orson Welles, Ian Hendry, Harry Andrews
With the DVD arriving today from the US, I thought I’d add a few stills from the film. An action adventure romp through the African jungle in the pursuit of an extremely valuable diamond, The Southern Star!
Set in French West Africa in 1912, it was based on the novel The Vanished Diamond (French title L’Étoile du sud) by Jules Verne. The film’s opening scenes were anonymously directed by Orson Welles – the last time he would direct scenes in another director’s film.
