Legion Condor (film)
''Legion Condor'' is a 1939 German war film directed by Karl Ritter and starring Paul Hartmann, Albert Hehn and Fritz Kampers. The film portrays the German Condor Legion, which fought in the Spanish Civil War. Because of the German-Soviet Pact, the production was halted after 15 days of shooting, on 25 August 1939 to avoid offending the Soviets, who had supported the other side in Spain and were negatively portrayed in the film. Karl Ritter's diary entry that day stated that Hermann Göring had called the Ufa studio to tell him to abort the film. The film is often confused with the full-length documentary film by Karl Ritter, ''Im Kampf Gegen den Weltfeind'' (''In the Battle against World Enemy #1''), released on 15 June 1939 on the same subject. ''Legion Condor'' was planned as a sequel to Ritter's highly successful 1938 feature film, ''Pour le Merite'', also starring Paul Hartmann, Albert Hehn, Fritz Kampers, Carsta Löck, amongst others. In August 2018 the long-lost Ufa film ...
