Saw this off-beat movie starring Anthony Quinn as an Eskimo(?). I dont recall ever having seen this movie before. It is part documentary with a voice-over narrative, interlacing wild life footage of the Arctic landscape with some staged scenery. Guess who else starred in this movie? Quite entertaining.
The movie is shot in glorious Technicolour!

It brought to mind an old b&w movie about "Nanook of the North". Another Eskimo movie on the lives of Eskimoes.
 
Yes playing an Inuit
From a novel : Top of the World
with P O'Toole
Still remembering some scene ( seeing it almost 50 years ago )
The movie was presented at the Canne Festival and warmly commented
