About this title: 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.

"Still in many ways a classic of the exotic action film, and a vision of George Stevens's precise, light, unerring touch before his films became ponderous, GUNGA DIN is flawed by the fact that its slap-happy approach to combat and its patronizing attitude on racial and romantic relations have not aged well.
