    ESCAPADE DURING REBELLION

    Excellent adventure/thriller set as the British Empire in India was beginning to lose it"s influence and power. Excellent cast of stars headed by Kenneth More and Herbert Lom on opposite sides. Veteran actor Wilfrid Hyde White and Ava Gardner also gave brilliant performances but special praise should be given to the Indian actor who played the Engine driver. Classic performances all around and a lot of stiff upper lip English jingoisn of times gone by.

  • Most critical review

    Real 'Boys Own' stuff.

    Perhaps today a little politically incorrect - but who really cares. It is a great action film of its period which is well acted by an excellent cast and very enjoyable. Just the thing to watch on a Sunday afternoon wearing ones solar topee, khaki shorts and waving the Union Jack whilst sipping a chota peg or two.

  • GREAT STORY AND ADVENTURE AND LOTS OF HISTORY AND ENGAGING CHARACTERS

    EXCELLENT WELL MADE FILM OF THE KIND YOU DO NOT SEE ANYMORE. SET IN INDIA AND THE BRITISH EMPIRE OF 1905 , BEFORE WORLD WAR ONE. VERY WELL TOLD AND A GREAT CAST OF ACTORS. VERY WELL EXPLORED THEMES OF REASONS FOR CONFLICTS , SEPARATE RELIGIONS , RANKS OF BRITISH AND INDIAN SOLDIERS AND CIVILIANS OF DIFFERENT RELIGIONS AND CLASS AND COUNTRIES. THE SCENERY IS MAGNIFICENT, ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS VERY WELL DONE AND STUNTWORK IS IMPRESSIVE. LAUREN BACALL IS THE LEADING LADY AND KENNETH MORE IS GREAT AS THE BRITISH OFFICER. MADE IN 1959 THREE YEARS BEFORE LAWRENCE OF ARABIA WAS MADE. ANOTHER FILM I REMEMBERED SEEING IN MY PRE-TEEN DAYS ON BBC 1 (VERY EARLY 1970S). THE POLITICAL CORRECTNESS OF THE LAST 25 YEARS WOULD BAN THIS FILM FROM BROADCAST TODAY FOR FEAR OF UPSETTING JUST ABOUT EVERY CHARACTER IN THE FILM PORTRAYED--BUT THIS WAS A WELL MADE REALISTIC ADVENTURE FILM SET IN THE DAYS OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE -JUST 54 YEARS BEFORE 1959. LOOK OUT FOR THE TECHNICAL ADVISOR OF THE FILM ON THE PRE -FILM CREDITS.... HE SHOULD KNOW.....

  • Good period film!

    I first saw this film as a keen 10 year old and enjoyed it then. I have had the same enjoyment watching it again as a retired man. It is a good story, told in an entertaining manner, with a sterling cast. The scenery is stunning. The transfer from film to DVD is good, although there is a black frame around the picture. Overall, a very good film.
