Attentato ai tre grandi (English: Attack on the three large ones) is a 1967 war film set during World War II in Morocco about a German commando group with a mission to assassinate Churchill, Roosevelt and de Gaulle at a conference in Casablanca. The film is a character based drama that focuses on the German soldiers' various drives and conflicts during encounters with Tuareg nomads, and French and American soldiers.

Some commenters consider the film to be Umberto Lenzi's best and have remarked the film is notable for having Germans as the heroes and with mixed multi-dimensional characters.^[1]
