An excellent film on this epic battle. The Zulus are still proud of this action as they were able to show the British they couldn't be pushed around. Also, a recent article on BBC noted that in South Africa, the decendants of these warriors noted that when this film was made, it was one of the only times whites and blacks could work together as it was made during the Apartied era. Glad that parts over and done with.
This event would have shocked many of the British garrisons around the Empire, including Halifax.
