The Zulu singing always sends the hair up on the back of my neck. I first watched this in the cinema aged 12 in 1964. Forever after cowboys and Indians were so last year. Home made spears and decorated cardboard shields. Here I am at 72 and can almost quote the whole movie.

Love this movie, most of my friends laugh at this film, but they just don't understand the historical value of this film, or the efforts get so many people to make this film. The final battle scene shown here was truly epic, thanks for showing this.

[@Valorius]

Thanks for watching!

[@JeffY-y3z]

what many don't realize is that it is a historical turning point battle. The Custer Massacre on the Little Bighorn...happened June 25-26, 1876. This battle happened three years later January 22-23 1879. Both battles (and the battle at Isandlwana just before Rouke's Drift) could be considered the last gasp of tribal warfare against modern troops with advanced weapons. The indigenous tribes might have been initially victorious but it was short lived.

[@Valorius]

@@JeffY-y3z The Phillipine-American war from 1902-1913 is a later example of such warfare. It also spawned the birth of the M1911 pistol in caliber .45 acp. The Moro were armed almost exclusively with primitive edged and missile weapons while the US were armed with far more effective weapons than the British were in the Zulu war, and it still took the US over a decade to defeat them.

[@JeffY-y3z]

This is by far one of my most favorite war movie of all time. I am 51 years old now, but I remember this always coming on from time to time on TBS. I always watched the whole movie. I remember going to Sunday School class and my mother picking my sister and myself up. I would tear off my Sunday clothes and change just to watch this with my father. I remember reenacting the battle scenes with my army men, star wars figures, and just random toy soldiers from different backgrounds to engage in war on my bedroom floor. I remember only using 50 men to act as the British garrison and using all the rest for the Zulu warriors. What amazing battles I would have and a vivid imagination. Thank you for uploading this!

Great film but Stanley Baker was Welsh and being in charge he took liberties with the truth. The 24th were not a Welsh regiment, they were an English one, the Warwickshire regiment. 25% of the regiment were Welsh due to them being stationed on the Welsh border and in those days a man could just walk into the barracks and join up. They became the South Wales borderers some six years after this. The majority were English, followed by Welsh and then Irish and one Jock. I don't think any regiment in the whole British army didn't have an Irish contingent and their contribution to the British empire was immeasurable. We're a great team

He wanted reassurances the zulu were going to be portrayed as equals, and not as "indians from a cowboy film".
