Wiki.
The Red Tent (Russian: Красная палатка, translit. Krasnaya palatka; Italian: La tenda rossa is a joint Soviet/Italian 1969 film directed by Mikhail Kalatozov.
The film is based on the story of the 1928 mission to rescue Umberto Nobile and the other survivors of the crash of the airship Italia. It features Sean Connery as Roald Amundsen and Peter Finch as Nobile. The script was adapted by Yuri Nagibin and Mikhail Kalatozov from Nagibin's novel of the same title. Nagibin couldn't complete the script due to a series of conflicts with the producer, who insisted on expanding the role of his paramour Claudia Cardinale, and it was completed by de Concini and Bolt.
