First i like the letterbox version which shows everything intended by the original producers. It's an excellent value for those who like a historical context for action flicks. The film is a character study and shows some of the psychological motivations of the key players. Action is intelligently woven into the plot. It has romance also . . . something for almost everyone. Black and white is no obstacle to enjoyment in this case.

Richard Attenborough is SUPERB in his role as a British non-com wrestling with his duty as an English soldier and watching his country's empire dissolve. No, it's not a shoot-em-up John Wayne type movie but it works well presenting the emergence of African independence.
