Morocco

US (1930): Romance/War

The Foreign Legion marches in to Mogador with booze and women in mind just as singer Amy Jolly (Marlene Dietrich) arrives from Paris to work at Lo Tinto's cabaret. That night, insouciant legionnaire Tom Brown (Gary Cooper) catches her inimitably seductive, tuxedo-clad act. Both bruised by their past lives, the two edge cautiously into a no-strings relationship while being pursued by others. But Tom must leave on a perilous mission... The second of his seven collaborations with the marvelous Marlene, Josef von Sternberg directs Dietrich, Cooper, Adolphe Menjou and Ullrich Haupt in this Paramount release. (Rod Crawford, IMDb)
