Format:DVD
General Film Distributors (GFD) presents "SIMBA (aka:Mark of Mau Mau)" (1955) (100 min/Color) -- Starring Dirk Bogarde, Virginia McKenna, Donald Sinden, Earl Cameron, Basil Sydney, Marie Ney, Joseph Tomelty & Orlando Martins
Directed by Brian Desmond Hurst
Another great film from the British Invasion which VCI has restored and brought from their vaults.
The Mau Mau rebellion was an early example of terrorism through brutality and atrocity. Many Kenyans lived in fear of a Mau Mau raid and more than 2,000 were killed by Mau Mau. The blood oaths and secret society of the Mau Mau made the terror all the more extreme.
Although few of those murdered were white, many settlers were extremely scared. They were particularly scared at night, and of being betrayed by their household employees. Racism was prevalent in the white community, a better approach would be to recognize the white settlers' concern for their safety from murder and home invasion.
Simba accurately depicts the fear and tension of the period. There are fine performances and the film is absorbing and exciting.
Still of you're a fan of Dirk Bogarde this is another winner from his illustrious career.
Nominated BAFTA Film Award for Best British Film, Best Film from any Source, Best Screenplay (John Baines)
