While it would be the subject of a number of films following its conclusion, not many films about the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) were made during the conflict. Only two movies were turned out by Hollywood and William Dieterle’s Blockade (1938) was the only one to pick a side of …

Attack of the 50-Foot Woman (1958) Blu-ray Review
