Review of The Last Valley (1971) by Ivo P — 28 Apr 2010
Michael Caine and a group of barbarous (are there any other kind?) mercenaries first sack a village then fall in love with that village. They've been warring a long time and need the help of Omar Sharif's teacher/beggar to mediate an understanding between the warriors and the people.
An odd movie for sure that deals with manhood, religion, war farming, and witchcraft. You've seen him in Zulu and Jaws: The Revenge, so you know Caine is the master of portraying morally dubious individuals and he has lots of scenery to chew in The Last Valley.
Caine fans will have fun for sure. VF.
