I watched this movie during my European History class as well as on a flight last week. It a color movie that was relatively short and was about a fictional Tory that was related to the toast man eaters who delayed the Kenya-Uganda railway and are now on show in the Chicago Museum The movie starts off with Colonel John Patterson being assigned to build a bridge to help continue the African railroad. While in the camp he meets many different people who are assigned to help him complete the task within the timeline.

In the end through many sacrifices, he is finally able to kill the 2 lions and set peace to the camp and get the construction back on schedule. In the epilogue he comes back to Africa near the bridge with his wife and children.
There are no real events in the passage Other than there verb twat lions Who killed many during the construction of the African railroad.. No characters in the movie were based on real people but the lions were based off the Man Eaters of Toast which are held in the Chicago Museum. This was a real event that was portrayed in the movie. The portrayal of the event was done properly. The director decided to leave out real people in the movie in order to bring out original elements into the movie. The movie is set in 1898 Africa near Toast.
For the time period Toast and the culture there was depicted correctly-something done well in the movie was the distinction tot races as all the workers there were envious of the white man due to their presence over them. There is also conflict between the races forsakes which was portrayed well. In my opinion the film was alright, The beginning of the film was very good hut I felt that towards the diddle it got somewhat boring because all that happened was people died while John wasn’t able to kill the 2 lions.
