Diana in "The Long Haul"



Diana featured in a seemingly forgotten film "The Long Haul" released in 1957. Starring Victor Mature, Gene Anderson, Patrick Allen and Diana, this is one of many films from yesteryear which are sadly difficult to find.

Pictured here, Diana pouring champagne over her own personalised truck.

Synopsis taken from imdb:

After being discharged from the U.S. Army in Germany, Harry reluctantly follows his wife to England where he lands a job as a truck driver. It is
not long before his boss, Joe Easy, tries to involve the ex G.I. in a smuggling operation. Harry first resists but Joe throws Lynn, his own
mistress, into his arms and he soon forsakes his scruples. After Lynn has become his lover Harry leaves his wife. When he feels
he has made enough money, he considers getting back to the
States with Lynn. But just then an accident happens to Butch, his young son.
