| Summary |
Africa 1942 - Special Agent Alan Cooper is assigned to protect a train carrying Prime Minister Winston Churchill to Casablanca for a top-secret meeting with Stalin and Roosevelt. The Nazis have discovered the plan and German paratroopers lead a brutal assault, slaughtering the commando guards and taking Churchill prisoner. Cooper manages to escape but is now faced with an almost impossible mission - to mount a counterattack that will free the captive prime minister before the Germans can transport their prize back to Berlin. |
|
Jason Connery and Francesco Quinn (sons of Sean Connery and Anthony Quinn) spearhead a fine cast which includes Glenn Ford and Donald Pleasence. Loaded with action and fine location photography, the twisting plot of Casablanca Express soars to a shocking conclusion. |
