West of Suez (U.S. title The Fighting Wildcats) is a 1957 British drama film directed by Arthur Crabtree and starring Keefe Brasselle, Kay Callard and Karel Stepanek.
An adventurer is hired to assassinate the leader of an Arab movement advocating peace, but is unable to complete his mission.
Braselle was meant to direct as well as star but could not get a permit to do so from the British trade union, so producer Richard Gordon replaced him with Arthur Crabtree.
[3] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This Anglo-American thriller contains plenty of vigorous action, but the story has many weaknesses, and the characterisation is thinly conventional.
Of the international cast, Keefe Brasselle makes an effective Brett and Karel Stepanek is suavely sinister as the German conspirator Langford.
