greatest film ever

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2006)

I believe this is the best film of all time
By far the best most moving enjoyable timeless war movie By far the film that somehow touches and moves you at the same time by far the most cinematic. there's just something about the beauty of the red of the welsh regiment and the rugged terrain and the magnificence of the Zulu warriors
it taps into the sheer inane cruelty of those controlling the British empire quite willing to sacrifice a few hundred British soldiers just to build a small footbridge in Africa to add to their already huge empire
The battle scenes, the preachers, the deserters, the redeemed soldiers, the hero's, the carers, the pacifists, the welsh , Irish, English and Scots together in battle, the upper crust Caine, the working class subtle of Stanley baker who financed the movie out of his own pocket and oh the singing. From my travels, I'd just suspect the Irish and welsh would probably break into song at a time like that.
I loved the film so much I went to wales to a place called Brecon to the welsh regiments museum which is where this regiment was trained the photos are the the emblems, the old weapons, the real soldiers involved. oh and what an amazing beautiful cultured town Brecon is honestly you must visit. from war museums, to castles, to cathedrals, honestly I was in heaven.
