Spain released, PAL/Region 0 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), Spanish ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Filmographies, Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: As the Ottoman Empire collapses throughout Turkey in 1922, a number of adventurers from all over the world sign on to protect the locals from thieves and marauders--for a hefty price. Two such mercenaries are Adam Dyer (Tony Curtis) and Josh Corey (Charles Bronson), who are hired by provincial Turkish governor Osman Bey (Gregoire Aslan). Adam and Josh are expected to protect their boss' gold shipment, and to provide safe conduct for Osman Bey's three daughters. Along the way, our 'heroes' decide to forget their mission and abscond with the gold, but their plans are foiled by their own inherent ineptitude--and by the bothersome interference of duplicitious Colonel Elci (Fikret Hakan). You Can't Win 'Em All is best described as a 'western with fezzes.' ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide ...You Can't Win 'Em All ( Soldiers of Fortune ) ( The Dubious Patriots (You Can't Win Them All) )

Vera Cruz in Turkey
You Can't Win `Em All aka Soldiers of Fortune comes from the time when the studios were looking ever further East to save money while still getting some spectacle for their buck. With Spain and Italy increasingly expensive and the Soviet Union a bureaucratic nightmare, Turkey must have seemed like a good idea at the time for this riff on Vera Cruz that plants Charles Bronson's mercenary and Tony Curtis not-entirely-disillusioned adventurer ("I lost everything in a big war, maybe I can get some of it back in a small one") in the dying days of the Ottoman Empire and working for the wrong side ostensibly escorting Turkish Bey Gregoire Aslan's daughters and a shipment of gold to safety. Naturally things aren't that simple and with everyone out for themselves they have as much to worry about from their `allies' - Fikret Hakan's colonel and Michele Mercier's mystery woman - as the rebels. There are few surprises and leading men aside it's short on starpower (fourth-billed Patrick Magee is hardly in the film for as many minutes), but director Peter Collinson delivers the action efficiently enough and at times the film looks like one of the more spectacular spaghetti westerns even if the film never really rises above the level of an acceptable second feature on the wrong half of a double-bill.Sadly the Spanish DVD, while 2.35:1 widescreen, isn't a great transfer, but it does have an English soundtrack and is currently the only version available.
