StonecreekThanks, RCG. I'm familiar with Zulu and Snows of Kilimanjaro, but not "Something of Value". Do you have a short review?

RCGStonecreek:
It is the film adaptation of the Robert Ruark novel of the same name set during the Mau Mau crisis in Kenya in the 1950's.
Excellent book with the usual Hollywood shortcuts.
