[edit] Plot
This movie is a 50's movie, set in Kenya. Shows the colonial/native African conflict brought about by colonialism and differing views on how life should be lived. The Maus Maus uprising is central to this movie. It stars Rock Hudson as the colonial, and Sidney Poitier as the native African black man. The two boys have grow up together, but drift apart at maturity. Great movie, memorable scenery, and story line. Appropriate and germane to todays audience.
