Zulu Dawn (1979)
Directed by Douglas
Hickox this film stars Peter O'Toole, Burt Lanchaster, Sir John Mills
and Denholm Elliot. In 1879 a British column is set to launch an
invasion of Zulu land in South Africa.
Made 15 years after
Zulu (1964) this attempt at a prequel has an all star cast and a
fairly large budget. While the script is again provided by Cy
Endfield this time the direction really lets it down in comparison to
the original. While the scenery provides a great back drop to the
film the all important battle is too small a part of the film and
really suffers from now having a more detailed view.
2/5
