Sir Michael Caine, the 89-year-old internationally renowned actor, has, according to reports, soundly denounced the characterization of his 1964 break-out film ‘Zulu’ as a “key text” for “white nationalists” and “supremacists,” by the UK government, according to The Daily Mail.

Blacks and apologists for the abhorrent actions of blacks are afraid that the movie, “Zulu”, will encourage whites to stand up and fight against hoards of out of control blacks.

I don’t particularly care for Moore. He strikes me as a bit queer. But the movie Zulu was good. These wokesters make zero sense and Moore is correct. Someone explain to me how the Zulus kicking British ass is white supremacy.

At the end of a fierce, deadlocked battle, the Zulus and the whites grudgingly respected each other, and parted under those terms. The blacks were hardly out-of-control in the movie. They fought bravely and wisely, but could not overcome the British position, formation and tactics. The entire regiment that they rubbed out on Mount Kitzelawaya earlier didn’t fare quite so well.

“Gave up in the end-don’t remember”

LOL....The Zulu lost thousands and over the several hours of battle developed an abiding respect for the courage and skill of the 100+ British soldiers with whom they fought.

The left can’t stand seeing (or allowing us to see) a depiction of brave men.

Great movie. Brits and Zulus basically fought to a tie. The ending was really epic! Anyone who hasn’t seen it should find it.

Racist? Seemed like a lot of inter-warrior respect in that movie, IIRC.

What if it was white supremacy. BFD. Movies, TV shows and theater are a record of social evolution going back thousands of years to the Greeks. Too much of the Greeks’ great plays were lost when Alexander’s library was destroyed in Alexandria by a conquering Muslim army. Banning even a blatantly racist play or movie, such as Birth of a Nation, is a crime against history.

Can’t believe it came out in 1964. I was 11. The current Zulu King doesn’t have a problem with the movie and his father appeared in it.

They’re having a war against testosterone, and our T should hold its positions and fire on command.

Such a good movie I had to take a break from FR and rewatch it. I have an MGM copy of it and a copy of Zulu Dawn.
