### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A True Classic finally available
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2011*

I remember this from my childhood. I was thrilled to see it finally available from Amazon. It has a great story line with Alan Ladd acting as a gun runner with an old steamboat. As he runs it from Florida, he encounters the Cuban Patriot Rosanna Podesta. Will they get the Guns to Cuba? Enjoy this movie!

*by N***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2014*

This was an interesting movie.  I have always enjoyed Alan Ladd but he is also teamed up with another giant of the film screen ... Lloyd Nolan.  They play off each other great. Rossana Podestra was beautiful and played a courageous role.  The colors are excellent and the overall theme is believable.

    Alan Ladd is The GUN RUNNER en route to SANTIAGO
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014*

In 1898 Cuba is a Spanish colony looking for independence. Cashiered US army captain Caleb 'Cash' Adams (Alan Ladd) with his ex-army sergeant Trasker (Paul Fix) head a bunch of gun-runners heading for Tampa, Florida the jumping off point for arm-shipments to Cuba. The dangers are high but so are the rewards. Heading south through the jungle they are attacked by hijackers who are after the shipment of arms. They manage to fight them off, bury their dead and continue on their way to Tampa, when they arrive 'Cash' meets the Cuban representatives, he is not happy in order to get full-payment he has to deliver the shipment to Santiago, Cuba via Haiti, which also means dodging the Spanish blockade. 'Cash' agrees to their demands but for double the price! The shipment is loaded aboard the Vicksburg an old paddle steamer commanded by a crusty old river boat Captain 'Sidewheel'  Jones (Chill Wills) also on board is a rival gunrunner Clay Pike (Lloyd Nolan) and his gang. Sensing trouble Captain Jones take all the weapons from both parties. He also introduces them to Cuban freedom fighter Doña Isabella (ROSSANA PODESTA) she is also the cashier responsible for the payout following the delivery in Cuba. First port of call is in Haiti here Doña makes a part payment to 'Cash' and Pike she also introduces them and Captain Jones to her young brother  Juanito. Back on board they head for Cuba right through the Spanish blockade and foiling an attack from a Spanish outpost on the Cuba peninsula. Arriving at their destination they meet the Cuban patriots and find it's now necessary to take the ammunitions across country to Santiago. 'Sidewheel' Jones intends to create a diversion from the pursuing Spanish army. Meanwhile the gun-runners and the freedom fighters head through the jungle towards their new goal all the time 'Cash' finds himself drawn to the Cuban cause and ever closer to Doña Isabella. One barrier remains for their freedom a mountain pass guarded by the Spanish army and a final showdown between 'Cash' and Pike.SANTIAGO 1956 aka THE GUN RUNNER 93 minutes. Co-Produced by script writer Martin Rackin and Alan Ladd  through his own Jaguar Productions for Warner Brothers. Directed by Gordon Douglas who also directed three other Ladd movies after he left Paramount Studios. He has sterling support from Paul Fix, Lloyd Nolan and Chill Wills The love interest is provided by the beautiful Rossana Podesta who starred previously as 'Helen of Troy'. Lloyd Nolan had appeared with Ladd once before in WILD HARVEST 1947 except in that one they were buddies. Paul Fix was a Hollywood stalwart in hundreds of films, he was also a friend of John Wayne with whom he appeared umpteen times over many years. Another major star here was without a doubt the 'Jungle Set' of Warner Brothers Burbank Studios!As a self confessed Alan Ladd fan I must say this is not one of his best films but nowhere near his worst either, worth about three-and-a-half Stars I would say if I could. SANTIAGO is now in the Public Domain and available on DVD from Amazon UK as an US Region 1 import. Any Alan Ladd aficionado could do a lot worse than visit <DownunderDVD.com>  for a full list of Alan Ladd films available on DVD.
