ZULU


There is an old movie about the British army and their battles in South Africa called ZULU. The movie is really good and I recommend it to everyone. I talked to a friend about it and I remembered the recent PBS show Guns, Germs and Steel based on the Jared Diamond book. Check this link to read the theory of how Europeans colonized the rest of the world.

One episode shows how the Zulu warriors had a superior battle plan and used drugs to psych themselves up for battle.

Hey, you're talkin' about ME!

I'm the guy who happened to watch Zulu last night based on Don's recommendation. It's a swell movie!

I've already added Zulu Dawn and the Chaka Zulu miniseries to my Netflix queue. They sound Zuluriffic!
