One of my favourite scenes in the movie "The Wind + The Lion" was when the white 3 pc. suit clad Englishman was taking tea with Mrs.Pedacarius when the Berber horde comes crashing through the pavilion. The Brit in his impecable suit reaches into his jacket + cooly begins to shoot Berbers with shooting range form + precision;until his revolver clicks on an empty chamber. But with the classic British elan,he just shrugs + says damn,before he is cut down with a tulwar. I love that scene.
