Zanna Bianca (1973)

Zanna Bianca (1973, ITA/SPA/FRA) C-104m. ** D: Lucio Fulci. Starring Franco Nero, Virna Lisi, Fernando Rey, John Steiner, Missaele, Raimund Harmstorf, Carole André, Rik Battaglia, Harry Carey Jr., Maurice Poli. Labored attempt at bringing Jack London's famous story White Fang to the big screen. Film follows a little boy's friendship with a wolf-dog during the goldrush in turn-of-the-century Alaska. Talky, poorly scripted, not much of an adventure. Setting and cast are assets, though. For patient (and older) kids only. Score by Carlo Rustichelli. Followed by five(!) sequels until 1978, starting with RITORNO DI ZANNA BIANCA (1974). English title: WHITE FANG.
