Review of The Man Who Would Be King (1975) by Todd P — 10 Apr 2009
If you love the Indiana Jones movies, then this one is a MUST see. It's based on a Rudyard Kipling short story, and like so many other Kipling stories the natives are shown to be smarter and more ruthless than their would-be white conquerors originally anticipated.
Connery and Caine are in top form here and get their comeuppance in a particularly grisly fashion after the natives catch on to their schemes. Excellent cinematography and storytelling.
