Thank you for posting.
I first saw this as a young kid and it has remained one of my all time favorites since.
The sequel - "Zulu Dawn" depicts the British Loss that preceded this battle.

But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings - that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide.” ~ Gautama Siddhartha — The Buddha

That is how the Zulu got the rifles. ;)

Which they were not trained on and couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
However the Zulus were the only Native African people to defeat the British in combat.
Chief Buthelezi who consulted on the film was a fine leader for the modern Zulus - and he despised the ANC commies. :-)
