- U.S Marines (And a Navy shore party) assault a palace in the 1975 film "The Wind and the Lion", an amazing if a bit too "Indian Jones" esq historical film.
i own nothing and come on, it came out IN THE 70S for the love of god, how is this stepping on your damned copyright anyway? If anything this is FREE ADVERTISING SO JUST GO WITH IT!
"I don't think the French and Germans are going to like this, much too early in the morning for rattling sabers!"
why did he had a gun behind his back?
Rosevelt was mad as a hatter. These guys were just as nuts. One of my all-time favorite movies.
@Nicky Würschmidt Big Stock or Big Stick?
Yes sir.

The world needs another US president as mad as Roosevelt.
"Speak softly and carry a big stick."
- Pres. Theodore Roosevelt
Yes sir. 😊
They showed this clip when I went to Sea School at MCRD in March of 1987. I served aboard the Marine Detachment on USS Dwight D. Eisenhower CVN-69 from May 1987- May 1989. Great times and SEMPER FI!
😊
When I was in Sea School in April of 1961 all we got to see was Victory At Sea. I served with the Marine Detachment on the USS Ticonderoga CVA-14 from 1961 to 1963. Semper Fi!
И трава тогда была зеленая и только небо голоубое
As cool as this scene is, it didn't actually happen. The incident yes, but storming the palace no.
One of the early training days in Boot Camp they played this scene for us as the School House on Parris Island. I think it was to reinforce the importance of close order drill, serve as an introduction to the History of The Corps and because it's pretty motivating.
It is important to keep in mind though that almost everything depicted in this movie is very ahistorical. Still, that doesn't change the fact that it is awesome to watch!
People forget that at this time in history our army only numbered about 150,000 men and the marines around 20, 000, if that many. Only our navy was a substantial fighting force.
Tim Randall yes but they had shiny brass balls hoorah devil dogs
Until the end of WW1, Europeans didn't think much of American armed forces..... they had been slaughtering each other for centuries, so to them we were nothing more than a fledgling militia
In 1904, the USN was developing into a formidable force. Not quite there yet.
That's why the Navy is considered the Senior service ;)
@@jspee1965 In the UK? Maybe. But in the States, the Army predates America, so they have seniority in the order of precedence.
It was necessary. Jefferson knew how to deal with pirates and nothing changed over 200 years.
The discovery and need for fossil fuels changed all that.
Was it Jefferson who sent those magnificent US Frigates on their first long rang deployment, hunting Barbary Pirates?
@@Brianboru88 two times, one when he was president, the second after the war of 1812/15, when a naval force of US, British (!)& Dutch raided and razed Barbary pirates' bases.
@@Brianboru88 the barbary pirates destroyed over 600 navy US brittish ships
Jefferson, surely, and Roosevelt too, according this movie at 7:38.
The Plaza de las Américas and the Museum of Arts and Folklore, AKA the Bashar's palace, are still there and have not changed a bit. It's inside the Parque de Maria Luisa, a landmark in Seville. Oh, yes: There is a metro station about 500 meters from there, and nowadays the explanade is used by children to ride their bikes and skateboards. On the other hand, the train station where the marines and sailors stand at attention disappeared a long time ago. The German/French balconies are part of the Plaza de España. I also recognize some of the buildings in the narrow streets, they belong to the Historic Seville downtown. And the palm trees... they're still there, too.
Mi bisabuelo estuvo en Marruecos como teniente de ingenieros en Larache, donde operaba El Raisuni.
La carta fue dirigida al general Fernández Silvestre y no a Roosevelt.
Por cierto, la localización del escenario era como bien dices, la plaza de España de Sevilla, que además era la capitanía general de la segunda región militar.
Ah, so it represents events in Morocco, but was filmed in Spain. Thanks for filling us in :)
We had seen all ! Thanks! The Raisuni was the real king of Marocco and discendent by prophet ! We all know that this place is in Sevilla !
And they will be there when the USMC is historry😂😂😂😂
They were told what was going to happen. They didn't listen.
Me podrías dar un contexto de que paso ahí recuerdo haber vísto ésa película pero ya no me acuerdo
@@alfredoaquino7488 La película se inspira con muchas licencias en una crisis política derivada del secuestro de un comerciante greco-americano (Perdicaris) por rebeldes marroquíes. Lo de esta escena en realidad no ocurrió.
When Amharic’s was great
I love this scene from the Wind and the Lion, it is a good depiction of the first time the United States flexed its muscles on the international stage in the 20th century. President Roosevelt did it to show Germany, France and Great Britain we were not to be trifled with.
Look at the American Embassy, small and located on some side street as opposed to the grand embassies of the French and Germans on the plaza. America was considered an upstart nation in those days, not a serious player on the international stage, until Teddy Roosevelt with actions such as this showed the world how wrong they were!
@@AkakyAkakyevich - Well, no, it didn't actually happen this way. Artistic license, and all that. It's still a pretty moving scene, though.
Got stoked 1st time I saw this scene...of course this isn't how it happened, but God bless good ole Teddy who loved the Navy & Marine Corps and I've always been a huge John Mulius fan...his attention to detail ( uniforms & weapons) in this and most all of his projects are a big reason
We stayed out of the Morroco situation for the most part, many Britons preferred cordial relations with the US. Sure hotheads on both sides still envisaged a war between us, but even by the 1890's, very unlikely, I think the US Naval Squadron was given quite a welcome when they visited Australia, New Zealand and Gibralter.
Its a good job thats why he ordered this attack because it does not seem to have impressed the Arabs who still like to pull your tail from time to time.
Before watching the video: "Yeah, Marines are cool, but I would probably do air force if I ever join the military"
After watching: *"OO-RAH IT IS!!!"*
"You are a very dangerous man Captain, and your President Roosevelt is mad!"
(Saluting) "Yes Sir!"
Best part of the scene next to the Marines mowing down the palace guards before unleashing hell!
maybe you should not kill so many people in the name of Mohamet... he is the biggest killer in the world... and you have no brains, just you have to obey him.. .Why Muslims people will not stay where their belong, in their own countries.. or other way, be free
As I said earlier, also one of the best damn double march's I have ever seen on film. The actors and extra's did it very well.
And the uniform's of the period were simple but just so smart
You liked that.............
yeah, really cool launching an unprovoked deadly assault on 'guards', a lot of whom aren't even armed
He speak the truth
Hell, yes! The most exciting charge in cinematic history.
I found the British Royal Marines attacking the slave fortress in the film Amistad was the best.
There's no such body as the British Royal Marines, just the Royal Marines.
charge of the rohirrim
I live quite near Camp Pendleton and took two Marines over from the base to Oceanside recently. Enjoyed their company. Keep up the shelling practice is what I say. This movie is one of my twenty or so favorites, not just for Connery and Bergen's performances, but for Keith's and Huston's and Kanaly's. This particular scenem by director Milius, is used in the Marine Corps for training, believe-it-or-not. Nothing like this will be filmed again. Go for it.
"Hostiles to the left, Left Face" How is that not academy award material?
Something about the order to charge to a unit of marines just does it for me.
They don't call them "Devil dogs" for nothing.
I didn’t know that the old combat uniforms later became the marine’s dress blues
Supposedly we even fought with our Service Alphas once.
It is
Thank you Bill!! They certainly moved as they should have.
When you add a country to your sphere of influence in Victoria 2.
perhaps a bit more of this diplomacy would encourage the unruly of the world to get in step.
Perhaps educate yourself and you’ll realize it doesn’t.
Gunboat diplomacy doesn’t work on a peer to peer level.
Actually the world just wanna kill and eat each other for more Power, more resources and more lands.

Does "get in step" mean men in girl's bathrooms and child abuse? That's america's game these days... woke, right?
Was never a Marine, but God how I love this
Glorious day in this man's Marine Corps!
@@tomkratman4415, well, not with marines, it was a naval unit under command of a navy lieutenant and a unit of naval infantry. Marines are just better known and sexier for movie purposes...lol
No, I mean the entire battle is made up. Never happened. Hollywood run wild.@@tonyngc
@@tomkratman4415 , yes no battle, and no Marines. The only troops I think that landed was a small detachment of naval infantry, but there was not a bayonet charge and assault on a palace. But that doesn't make for an exciting action set piece...lol.
Semper Fi
*The French and Germans with their big embassies* "Americans?"
*The US Marines* "Hi, we're here to flex on you for a few moments."
When they Double Time on Cobble Stone sounds like Freight Train coming to Kill You.Those Guards did not know what to do. Poor Bastards.
the military step called the ‘tramp’ (a step with a hard downward placement of the boots) was designed the sound load and get attention. almost totaly unknown or practiced today. they got it perfect in this scene.
I'm willing to bet for this scene, actors were not used but instead real life Marines!!
Actually they were Spanish marines -- from Spain's armed forces -- who were used to film these sequences. A few Americans, like the captain, were used in speaking roles.
@@billtremewan9601 They were obviously professional soldiers. No group of actors could preform with such precision.
Thanks for that info, for years I wondered if they were US Jar heads or not
The Spanish Marines , with the oldest marine history in the world .
@@kevinmarsh5101 This is true. They predate the Royal Marines by almost 130 years.
Those gardens looks firmilar .. . Plaza De Espana .... in Seville
The docks are the Guadalquivir river docks, which is why the warships in the background look so fake. The Plaza de España is where the French and German consulates are located. The battle takes place in the Plaza de América at the Maria Luisa Park (near the Plaza de España), the building the Marines attack is the Ethnological Museum.
Fix bayonets, double time! When marching, I loved double time while in formation
Minor historical inaccuracy: the marines are using Springfield krag rifles, the marines didn’t adopt the krag rifle, they adopted the Winchester Lee navy.
I guess the krag looking piece was the best they could round up for this scene..... but double time at a high port, with fixed bayonets.... I get stoked everytime I see this part of the film !!
Actually they used krags after the Spanish american war
No. The first Marines to carry Krags were of the Peking Relief Column, the ones who came to reinforce the Foreign Legations right before the start of the siege. By this point in Time, they would've have already phased out those rifles and replaced it with Krags. So no, it ain't a minor historical inaccuracy.
Major historical inaccuracy: as with most events shown in the movie, the US Marines assault on Tangier is movie fiction.
As for the usage of Krag rifles by the Marines instead of Lee-Navy rifles, IMFDB has this to say:
"The U.S. Model 1896 Krag-Jorgensen is used by U.S. Navy and U.S. Marines throughout the movie. Historically inaccurate. In 1904 the Marines and Navy would have been carrying the Winchester-Lee Rifle in 6mm Lee. But the director of the movie, John Milius, has acknowledged this and stated that the production simply couldn't find enough operating Winchester-Lees to use. So the production had to compromise. It's not entirely historically inaccurate for US Marines to have Krag rifles in the film. The Navy bought their first Krags in 1900 and they were phasing out the Lee-Navy rifle at that time, but still the majority of Marines would have still be armed with Lee-Navy rifles in 1904 and would be until around 1910 when the Lees and Krags would start to be supplanted by M1903 rifles."
All that just to open a Starbucks.
“Hostiles to the left. Left face!” Way to go, Marines!
My favorite scene from one of my favorite movies. Simply the Best!
Best damn double march I've seen in a film...
One of my favorite scenes...
"...Why we are in the very shadow of Gibraltar!"
"Speak softly and carry a big stick."
- President Theodore Roosevelt.
",,,,an antidote for the softening tendencies of our time."
(Roosevelt describing the Robert Peary arctic expeditions.)
"Hostiles to the Left!" "Prepare to charge the Palace!" LOL- what awesome orders to be able to give!
I like the boss on the couch, relaxing like he's watching a show lol!
@John Gilliam you are a foul-mouthed pig!
In 1885 , US marines invaded Korean Ganghwa island and killed numerous Korea guards more 200 persons.
The obvious comeback was, "Not that I don't appreciate the visit, Captain, but next time, do you suppose we could do it at your place?"
Saw this in its original release. Struck a chord. Now live near Camp Pendleton. I suggest the corps be fully deployed on the southernmost border of the United States from California to Texas and that additional recruitment be funded for dealing with issues in China, Korea, and elsewhere. It's a VERY long haul. Rough. That's what we pay our taxes for. DO IT.
Amen.
and that, my friend, is how you kick off WWIII and Nuclear holocaust.
the US has the most well-funded military in the world, more than ten times the funding of the next five countries combined. It's not money it needs. it's a clear mission. a war machine built to fight the USSR in Western Europe is still adjusting itself to fighting small insurgent operations in the middle east.
the US defense is strong, and our men and women are brave. but in the age of nukes, such large-scale and overt displays of military might have no purpose. Smaller-scale elite task forces are able to accomplish the goals that, in WWII or earlier, would have required full-scale amphibious landings and months-long campaigns. Large-scale pitched battles between uniformed armies have been replaced with special forces operations against plainclothes insurgent groups.
that the US has not seen the need to fully replace its primary MBT in almost 40 years is proof of this.
you sound like you need some serious meds.
It never was the Corps job to man any border. That's what the Army is for. The Marine Corps exists to enforce and protect American strategic and commercial interests
around the world in conjunction with the Navy.
I like how the sultan is still chilling even the palace has been raided
He wasn't the Sultan, his teenage Nephew was but in essence he was the "de facto" ruler.
As usual, the Navy brings the violence. Uh rah!
As usual the Marines bring victory! Semper Fi.
Semper Fi! Semper Fortis!
Navy brings the rain,
Marines bring the pain!
soldier: sir?
captain: yes private?
soldier: should we pack the tuba sir?
captain: of course not you idiot, we are storming a palace! pack two
Those were the days. Can't do that anymore. Marines, if they could make it to shore would be meet by AK-47s, RPGs and IEDs.
OORAH Marines!!!
I like the not so subtle FLEX when marching by the European embassies.
I’ll admit, late 19th century early 20th century American uniforms were pretty dope
Early 29th century not late 19th century. It was during Ted Roosevelt's time as President 1901 to 1909. He sent marines to save a American mother and son kidnapped by the Arabs.
John Milius made great movies. This is one of its best.
2:41 Who else wanted to scream: “Get your booger hook off that bang switch!”
Love this scene, always makes me go out jogging!
This must've been fun to film

Love the potato digger on the carriage.
Sadly they were non-firing props, but they would latter use real ones in another film by the same director "Rough Riders" (1998)
@@williamlydon2554 Saw it. Good movie.
Potato Digger?
@@donbrynelsen2157 The nickname for the Colt 1895 Machine gun, if i recall the name was due to the recoil often causing the gun to upend soil when firing.
It was basically a lever action machine gun. The "lever" action would often dig into the ground when cycling. ruclips.net/video/iFP-ZAlyRgg/видео.html
One of the greatest!
A Great Movie.
We need more madmen like Roosevelt. And like Grant. What did Roosevelt drink? Send every captain a bottle!
Una de las escenas más memorables de este icónico filme en recordar con vivo interés. Simplemente alucinante la toma de este palacio por los Marines.
It's absolutely remarkable how black and white everything is portrayed in this movie. Text book stuff from the Yanks. Great yarn!
The US Marines truly on form, as ever.
Ain't that the truth..
One of my favourite scenes in any movie, fascinating but appalling to modern geopolitical sensibilities.
Tô hell with sensabilities sir.Grow a pair!
05:50
They had field guns. Field guns!! And they didn't even have them pre-zeroed at a more correct elevation, towards a potential threat.
they were for show, like the attacked soldiers, who were used to ceremonial duties
Don't try to make your enemies love you until after you have made them fear you.
One of THE CLASSIC Movie Scenes. Great movie too. Candice Bergen
Year 2022. Nothing has changed.
OOH RAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are the uniforms correct? Did they change from 1900 to 1904 or are the Marines wearing dress uniforms. I just finished watching one of my favourite movies 55 days at Peking set in 1900 and the Marines wear blue shirts, stetson's and blue trousers.
...but don't forget Heston's ceremonial uniform with the other nations officers in the hotel ......it was very similar to this Captain's Uniform.
American history lesson. Just believe in movies, guys. They teach a lot...
Can someone explain what was all of that ?
This is the first and last Morocco and the US had a misunderstanding
What MEU was this? Nothing like a Med float...
Atlantic Squadron, USN
replicating turn of the century uniforms is not easy! it can be done, you have to be detailed in your research and finding replicas are available.
Luckily, post Victorian Uniforms are relatively simple, still very smart though..
Esta prlicula del prestigioso dirrctor y guionista jhon milius , se rodò en españa , concretamente en tierras andaluzas y tenia varios interpretes de la epoca muy famosos como sean connery y candice bergen

In 1809 in the battle of Telavera. The Duke of Wellington got his men marched 42 miles in 24 hours, each of the carried a 60 pound pack during a Spainsh hot Summer.

Ah, Morocco! The birthplace of truly modern gunboat diplomacy.
What about Tokyo Bay (formerly Edo Bay)?
You brought a sword to a gun fight i see...
Hmm that ain’t the shores of Tripoli lads. During this particularly sad affair there were no German troops in Morocco and the entire US invasion force consisted of 4 Marines with side arms. Ach well.

A classic movie showing US Hegemony, invading other countries and leaving them in shambles! couldnt agree more! Such a fine example of American imperialism!
Remember this scene. Slim men of character and gun skills.
Surprised the band kept up with all that running!
What period did the Marines fought in dress blue? Can anyone enlighten me please?
God Bless America

They say that the Marines got their Semper Fidelis motto from an Irish regiment in the French army during the War of Independence.
They wished to this in Vietnam, but they had to count their losses, and run away back home ! Those American boys sacrificed for absolutely nothing (may God grant them peace)!
Via my Uber (fun), I took two Marines from Camp Pendleton over to Oceanside recently. Entertained them with my comments about being on President Reagan's SDI Strategic Defense Initiative at NASA/CalTech/Jet Propulsion Laboratory -- and that was about it. Enjoy everyone and stand up for openness and freedom of thought, speech, and action. What else is there??? The above is a formal training film of the Marine Corps. I did apply once to the corps, but, like the director of the movie was turned down alas. Anyway.... :-)
no hesitation, fire.....charge
Now that is how international diplomacy would be conducted.
That's the spirit
Who? what? Where was this?
Rah!
Well, while that French lady seemed to admire the sight of the marching Americans, the German officer (who almost sounded genuine 😊) asked "What kind of nonsense is that?"
What rifle? A Winchester!- Iconic
