Zulu
Producer Stanley Baker stars in Cy Endfield’s epic recreation of the 1879 Battle of Rorke’s Drift, in which 1000 stiff-upper-lip British soldiers gave a good account of themselves in a battle with 4000 Zulu warriors. Not scrupulously accurate, but rousing and excitingly staged, with a great John Barry score.
