Don't LikeDaniel Dravot and Peachi Carnegan are ordinary British soldiers, but soon they will be revered and glorified by the people of an entire country! Taking advantage of the naivety and ignorance of the people of Kafiristan, Daniel and Peachi present the locals with proof of their divine origin and rise to the heights of power.
User Review
Rudyard Kipling’s Masonic epic in John Huston’s solid film adaptation. Made to last for centuries. A stunning, panoramic film—and, thank goodness, no computer-generated special effects, no substitutes: if you see a crowd, it’s a real crowd, not one cloned from three people using Shift+Insert; if you see a landscape, it’s a real landscape, not one drawn in Corel—or wherever they draw them these days—by a half-drunk programmer. And, I must say, it’s so impressive! It’s simply breathtaking. And it’s sad to realize that they won’t make movies like this anymore.
Aside from the plot—which is quite profound and esoteric in a Masonic sort of way—the film is also interesting because of the Connery–Caine duo. It’s interesting because, despite his prominent, central role, Connery falls short of Kane in every respect, at times looking downright helpless next to Michael and the mountain scenery. Kane, on the other hand, is brilliant and sparkling in a role that might seem uninteresting at first glance.
