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 Nazi-Soviet Pact, the film's production was halted before release to avoid offending the Soviets who had supported the other side in Spain and who were negatively portrayed in the film.[1]
