The Vikings is an adventure film directed by Richard Fleischer in 1958 Technicolor, produced by and starring Kirk Douglas, and based on the novel The Viking by Edison Marshall, based in its turn on legendary material from the sagas of Ragnar Lodbrok and his sons. Other actors included Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh, Ernest Borgnine and Frank Thring. The film made notable use of natural locations in Norway. It was mostly filmed in Maurangerfjorden and Bondhus, captured on film by cinematographer Jack Cardiff although Aella's castle was the real Fort de la Latte in north-east Brittany.
