“Hang on for action adventure that roars like thunder!”
When I was growing up, my dad introduced me to a 1973 film called Emperor of the North. This movie had a lasting impact on me because while we watched it, my dad would tell me stories of my grandpa and the similar experiences that he had during the same time period that the film is set in.
This is a favorite film of mine, and I know a lot of people that aren’t really familiar with it. So, I thought I’d take the time to talk about it a bit and recommend to those of you looking for an incredible film that you may have never seen before. If you have seen it, this is just a reminder to revisit it!
Emperor of the North is set in 1933 during the great depression, and it pits legendary actor Ernest Borgnine against legendary actor Lee Marvin.
