The Man Who Would Be King

(John Huston, US/UK 1975, 129 min.)

Sean Connery and Michael Caine are the heroes of Rudyard Kipling’s story, seeking fortune and glory in the mystical (and fictional) nation of Kafiristan. When the two are mistaken for being more than mortal, power and greed begin to tear them apart. “Huston’s most robust and poetic adventure features the absolute perfect casting of Caine and Connery. He originally conceived it when Bogart and Gable were his casting choices!”—Jack Garner. Members admitted free.
