King of the Khyber Rifles (1953)

In 19th-century India, a rebel leads the population to an uprising. The British forces prepare to defend its rule. One of its commanders is a man of mixed ethnicity, who suffers discrimination, and with whom his superior's daughter falls in love.

Routine adventure, with very little excitement to it, and with a reactionary slant to it. It was filmed in California, but some background exteriors are of India. The main actor seems to have had his face smudged with a darkening product. I am out of interesting things to say about this film.

Rating: 34
