Wissenswertes

Lo squadrone bianco is a 1936 Italian film directed by Augusto Genina. The plot features a cavalry lieutenant, unlucky in love, who redeems himself by battling the "rebels" of Tripolitania. The film won the Mussolini Cup at the Venice Film Festival, during the Second Italo-Abyssinian War.

Production

The film is based on the novel L'Escadron blanc by French writer Joseph Peyré, who had a hand in the adaptation of the script to the screen. It was shot at the Cines Studios in Rome.

Genina's noted shots of the Tripolitanian desert were all done on location. For its use of foreign technologies, it has been called the "first sample of the Americanised technical powers of Italy's huge new cinema city."
