Review of White Mischief (2003) by Tony C — 13 Jun 2007
This is a brilliantly observed film. The painful ways in which the self-destructive bored rich (and wealth-seeking parasites) seek to amuse themselves plays off against the background of Kenya. Here, the arrogance of the 'ruling class' is portrayed in subtle yet powerful ways.
In one scene a Kenyan servant is setting up targets for the Bwana to practice his shooting. He's almost killed when the Bwana lets off a shot before he's even walked away. Subtle yet devastating!
