Sean Connery is completely magnificent in this movie....him and Brian Keith definitely steal the show.....this movie is great and it makes you wonder how the jihad fighters in the middle east of today lost all their chivalry.....This movie puts them to disgrace, as if they werent allready disgraced....If Allah truely existed, he would wipe the earth with those that disgrace him....
The Truth is out there.
Great as he may be, was a Berber pirate with a Scottish brogue really very believable?

Actually, unlike other films, in this one his accent is totally believable. He does not delivers his usual thick Scottish utterances. And since he's always being tanned and wearing the bushy beard , the role fits him like a glove.
There's a thin gap between skepticism and cynicism
Milius has explained the Raisuli's brogue by suggesting he learned English from one of the many Scots who dominated mid-level administrative roles in the British Empire's colonial civil service.
sharei have to say you made them loose it, when nation A kill women and children of nation B, frankly i can't blame nation b for killing women and children of nation a. i have to say the truth, only the french in the west kept some dignity, although participated in the first gulf war, they refused to bomb civilian targets, and they refused to participate in the massacre of the second gulf war.
shareThis and The Man Who Would Be King are two of Connery's finest films, both produced by John Houston, both great historical dramas they don't, or won't, make anymore. Sean was the best Bond, but I am glad he moved on to movies like these.
shareYou have to admire Sean Connery. He plays a Berber warrior leader, a descendant of the prophet and has a Scots accent.
It's that man again!!
I'll watch any movie with Sean Connery. He's amazing!
shareI agree, I thought this was very good. He has some movies I still haven't seen yet and I wanna keep it that way for as long as possible so I keep having movies to discover by him.
