Sahara is a 1943 movie about a M3 Lee tank, commanded by U.S. Army Sergeant Joe Gunn (Humphrey Bogart) that becomes separated from its unit during a general retreat. The crew picks up a motley collection of stragglers, among them a British doctor, four assorted Commonwealth troops, and a Free French corporal. Later, they pick up a Sudanese sergeant major and his Italian prisoner, who volunteers to lead them to a well at Hassan Barani. The well has completely dried up by the time the Germans arrive. A standoff and battle of wills begins.
