An Arkin in June

Who knew that, in Turkish, that thing that looks like a C with a thread hanging off of it makes a "j" sound? Thus the phrase "Çuneyt June" is actually alliterative. And if you don't think that's enough of an excuse for a Teleport City theme month, you just don't know us very well. So, for the entirety of Summer's freshman month, we at TC will be lining up to give praise to Turkish cinema's indefatigable action hero Çuneyt Arkin, with my own contribution being a review of the 1973 swashbuckler Kara Murat Fatihin Fermani. The thrills begin here.

  1. Correction The letter "C"(without the tail)sw makes the "J" sound !! C with the tail has the "Ch" sound.

PLEASE NOTE: I do not sell, trade, upload or otherwise provide copies of the films that I review on this site, so please don’t ask.

Please, no questions about where to download films or subtitle files. If you are asking about the availability of a reviewed film on DVD, please make sure that you have first conducted a simple search of the film’s title on Google, eBay, and Amazon. That usually works for me.

Everyone else, BRING IT ON!
