i found this movie very off putting becouse of what happened to the lady in the desert, i think it was. just untill i came here now i've been confusing this with "Red Sun" (1971). i've had them both on dvd for years and don't remember much of any of them.
what was that thing coming my way,
can you say that thing again,
even though the languege i don't speak,
sounded so good to me,
something you have in your speaking way,
let me here you utter those words again,
so cold and winterly in the alps outside,
you make it cuddly on the inside,
something in your voice,
bring funny magic in my soul,
even though your words i can't see,
what i heard yesterday, can you repeat those words for me.

I did as well (RE the woman) but only because I kept hoping that the late sixties trend toward more realism would have shown her shot, raped or both. But no. She gets taunted, a few heavy layers of clothing torn off, sand poured in her mouth, then somehow she dies from swallowing a jewelry chain that could have in no way cut off her breathing. And no, he doesn't cover her nose/mouth to smother her either.
Not that the violence would be "entertaining", but that it would be REAL.
Only by showing the true horror/tragedy of people attacking and killing either other INCLUDING WOMEN AND CHILDREN will the movies ever break through the "polite reality" wall and maybe even get more people to decry it in real life.
I really hate "hollywood" violence rules.
