VHS Movie Reviews of Something of Value [VHS]

Movie Review: A Few Exciting Places
Summary: 3 Stars

Jaime Seattle, WA

Overall this was a well made film. It could have delved more into the organization of the mau maus and why they rose up against the white settlers like they did. I wondered how accurate the use of the whistle is when they did their home invasions.

Movie Review: A Topical Richard Brooks Drama
Summary: 3 Stars

I have yet to see this film played on any Television cable channel. Brooks brings to the screen Robert Ruark's novel about the Mau Mau uprisings in the then British East Africa.

Its a powerful story that is well acted by Rock Hudson, Sidney Poitier, Dana Wynter and Wendy Hiller.

Here is a chance to see a terrific actor named Juano Hernandez( Young Man With a Horn, " The Pawnbroker") deliver the goods.
Time has changed attitudes on subjects like these situations portrayed here. However, parts of this drama are salient even today although framed differently. One can take the geography out of this part of Africa and transpose these types of conflicts to other continents. Directed with care by Mr. Brooks.
