Remember this turning up regularly on UK TV but never got round to watching it. Interesting piece that’s really piqued my interest, I’ll be seeking it out. My favourite ‘gold fever’ movie has to be Nic Roeg’s Eureka.
Ditto. It's been so long since I've seen this film. J Lee Thompson was always a reason to watch a film. I used to think of both him and Robert Aldrich being in the same camp. All good reasons to watch their films.

EUREKA is one strange film. I think l made a couple of attempts to watch but never managed to finish it. It just didn’t work for me.
Fantastic review. I am fairly sure I've seen it, but need to do a rewatch as it has been at least 40 years.

Thank you for penning this post, Andrew.
Love this. My Indian father-in-law loves this film and I’d never heard of it.
I've gotta add these to my ever-growing list of movies TBW. :)
Great overview of an oft neglected but worthwhile film...
Thanks, Paul, high praise from you.
