Zulu. They got it perfect the first time.

You could edit out the missionary that was not there historically.

I believe the part was added for the actor because he was a driving force in getting Zulu made.

The Reverend Otto Witt was there. He was a Swede, not British, and in no way the drunken sot portrayed.

My guess is they needed a character to voice the peril and hopelessness of the situation.

But still, the perfect movie.
