Trail of Kit Carson is a 1945 American Western film directed by Lesley Selander, written by Jack Natteford and Albert DeMond, and starring Allan Lane, Helen Talbot, Tom London, Twinkle Watts, Roy Barcroft and Kenne Duncan. <SEP> Helen Talbot( April 7, 1924 – January 29, 2010) was a motion picture actress and pin- up girl in the United States. She was born Helen Darling in Concordia, Kansas and lived there until 1941 when she moved to live with her brother in West Los Angeles, California. Talbot starred in at least 23 films and television projects, including a number of westerns as a leading lady. Her appearances include" King of the Forest RangersCorpus Christi Bandits", and" Trail of Kit Carson". She also had a lead role in" Federal Operator 99". <SEP> Mélanie Bernier( born 5 January 1985) is a French actress. She has appeared in several films, such as" L'Assaut"( 2011), directed by Julien Leclerq, relating the hijacking of an Air France A300 in December 1994, and also in several television productions. Bernier was born in Grasse, France, and grew up in Veigné, Indre- et- Loire. She began acting at a young age. In 2010 she appeared on UK television as a judge in the ITV series' Monte Carlo or Bust'. <SEP> His career spanned half a century, beginning in the early 1940s and ending in 2002. Kenneth Cooper" Ken" Annakin, OBE( 10 August 1914 – 22 April 2009) was a prolific English film director. His career peaked in the 1960s with large- scale adventure films and in all he directed nearly 50 pictures. <SEP> Monte Carlo or Bust! is a 1969 British/ French/ Italian co-production comedy film, also known by its American title, Those Daring Young Men in Their Jaunty Jalopies. The story is based on the Monte Carlo Rally – first raced in 1911 – and the film recalls this general era, set in the 1920s. A lavish all- star film( Paramount put$ 10 million behind it), it is the story of an epic car rally across Europe that involves a lot of eccentric characters from all over the world who will stop at nothing to win. The film is a sequel to the 1965 hit" Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines". Like the earlier film, it was written by Ken Annakin and Jack Davies and directed by Annakin, with music by Ron Goodwin. Terry- Thomas appeared as Sir Cuthbert Ware- Armitage, the equally dastardly son of the Sir Percy Ware- Armitage, which Thomas had played in the earlier film. Some others of the cast from the first film returned, including Gert Fröbe and Eric Sykes. The title tune is performed by Jimmy Durante. The credits sequence animation was the work of Ronald Searle, who was also featured in Annakin's earlier" Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines". Tony Curtis and Susan Hampshire played other contestants in the race; Curtis also starred in the similar period- piece comedy" The Great Race"( 1965) from Warner Bros. The film was originally intended to be called" Rome or Bust". The American distributors Paramount Pictures re-titled it" Those Daring Young Men in Their Jaunty Jalopies" to tie it to Annakin's 1965 film; re-editing also meant cuts, up to a half- hour, from the original UK release. <SEP> His career as director, spanning 127 feature films and dozens of TV episodes, lasted from 1936- 68. Lesley Selander( May 26, 1900 – December 5, 1979) was an American film director of Westerns and adventure movies. Before that, Selander was assistant director on films such as" The Cat and the Fiddle"( 1934)," A Night at the Opera"( 1935), and Fritz Lang's" Fury"( 1936). To this day Selander remains one of the most prolific directors of feature Westerns in cinema history, having taken the helm for 107 Westerns between his first directorial feature in 1936 and 1967. In 1956 he was nominated for the Directors Guild of America award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Television, for his work directing a 1954 episode of" Lassie".
