(1958) Jean Négroni, Mokhi, Uroz. Narrated by George Sanders.  Wow!  What we’ve got here is essentially a LOST George Sanders film (he did the narration for this, the AIP American edition), now on video for the first time.  It’s not listed in any of his film listings anywhere we could find—and it’s a pretty good film, too (6.2 on IMDB).

(1959) J Radovan Lukavský, Jirí Vala, Jirina Svorcová, Stanislav Remunda.  Being that this is a communist film from Czechoslovakia, it’s quite well done and genuinely exciting at times—a little grim, too, in places.  The story concerns the Czech border guards of the late 1940s and their constant challenges in keeping the smuggler and refugee problem in check (pun intended)...
