AGFA unsheathes THE SWORD AND THE CLAW (review)

Hiding behind the title THE SWORD AND THE CLAW is LIONMAN, one of the craziest Turkish action films ever made.  Raised by lions after his royal parents were massacred by Christians, the Lion Man returns to help his Turkish people gain freedom.  Clawing faces and bouncing around on an invisible trampoline, Cuneyt Arkin remains one of Turkey's great superstars still going strong into his eighties.
