Gunga Din (1939) more movies like this

directed by George Stevens
featuring Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Sam Jaffe, Eduardo Ciannelli, Joan Fontaine

Though Rudyard Kipling's poem Gunga Din makes a swell recital piece, it cannot be said to have much of a plot. It's simply a crude cockney soldier's tribute to a native Indian water boy who remains at his job even after being mortally wounded. Hardly the sort of material upon which to build 118 minutes' worth of screen time-at least, it wasn't ...

Curiously, Ms. Neagle does not appear--just as well, since the film is dominated by that shameless scenery-chewer Orson Welles. Introducing himself with a typically self-indulgent monologue, ...

Lady Godiva (1955) more movies like this
