The Mountain Eagle was a film made in Munich by a British director and screenwriter (Hitchcock and Eliot Stannard, respectively) with a story set in them-thar hills of Kentucky. It was a tale of unrequited love, false accusations, child abduction, false imprisonment and escape. The titular character, titular in the American release at least, was a goodly hermit named "Fear O' God Fulton". It must have been a fascinating stew, although Hitchcock apparently didn't much care for the finished product. Sadly, history can not make an independent judgment for no print of the film has survived. The Mountain Eagle was released in America as Fear O' God, moniker of the hillbilly hermit played by Malcolm Keen. |
