 Black Star Video presents: Tamango
A story of a revolt on a slave ship was actually around prior to the more recent Amistad but unfortunately, few seemed to have much interest in it judging from the limited distribution of this film when it first appeared in the conservative atmosphere of the 50's.
She is not really liked by any of the African captives as she has "given" herself to the white captain and is, of course, a slave to the white crew members.
Curt Jurgens, as a Slave ship captain is obviously not the nicest person in the world but seems to have some genuine affection for Aiche, and treats her comparatively well.

Curd Jurgens (better known as Curt Jurgens in America) was among the first German actors to achieve stardom in Hollywood in the post-World War II era.
Jurgens survived and, following his release, took Austrian citizenship.
Jurgens was subsequently the star of a well-intended but ill-fated remake of The Blue Angel, taking on the role of the doomed teacher identified with Hollywood's earlier top German-speaking lead, Emil Jannings, but he fared rather better playing rocket scientist Werner Von Braun in the biographical film I Aim at the Stars.

Complicating their relationship is the fact that Leith once had an affair with the Major's new wife (Ruth Roman), and is also harbouring serious doubts about his superior's fitness for the grim realities of desert warfare.
After the raid is carried out and the squad escape into the sand dunes to meet up with their escort home, things begin to fall apart.
Stoking the psychological depths of the screenplay (adapted from René Hardy's novel Amère Victoire), Ray delivers a bleak portrait of masculinity pushed to the limit that leaves both Jurgens and Burton's characters monumentally broken by the time the credits roll.

 Bitter Victory review from BBCi
Richard Burton and Curt Jurgens are at loggerheads in this wonderful war movie from director Nicholas Ray.
Stoking the psychological depths of the screenplay (adapted from Rene Hardy's novel Amère Victoire), Ray delivers a bleak portrait of masculinity pushed to the limit that leaves both Jurgens and Burton's characters monumentally broken by the time the credits roll.
Full of sharply observed drama and a bilious, misanthropic hatred for the folly of man, this is a stunning war movie in which the emotions are the troops, psychology is the battlefield, and love is the bitterest victory of them all.

 Bitter Victory (1957): Richard Burton, Curt Jurgens, Ruth Roman, Raymond Pellegrin - PopMatters Film Review
First, Ray failed to secure his top choices for two leading roles, Moira Shearer and Montgomery Clift, forced instead to settle for the less appealing Ruth Roman and Curt Jurgens.
In addition to reworking the central relationships during shooting, the director also dealt with Jurgens' complaints that his character, the opportunistic Major Brand, was not sympathetic.
Finally, following a lukewarm reception at the Venice Film Festival, the picture was cut by a full 20 minutes and re-released without studio support after a brief, poorly-received opening in the United States.

 Book Review > Austrian Cinema: A History | German-Hollywood Connection
Two actors that stand out, Curt Jurgens (Curd Jürgens, 1915-1982) and Romy Schneider (1938-1982), had very different Hollywood experiences.
Munich-born Jurgens, who became an Austrian citizen after World War II and is buried in Vienna, was one of the few German-speaking actors to achieve true star status in Hollywood.
Both Romy Schneider and Curt Jurgens are also good examples of film people who are usually considered German rather than Austrian.
