Came out the year I came to America so I missed it originally. Found it when reviewing the filmography of the uber-talented Fiona Shaw.
Interested to note how many of this young cast are now household names, certainly in England.
Casting of Delroy Lindo seems completely wrong though, to this day.
Iain Glen is rocking a Bowie/Beckham look, which is interesting in hindsight.
In the days of the great white explorer, it was best, when addressing Johnny Foreigner, to speak SLOWLY BUT LOUDLY. This is done often, and made me laugh.
The scenery seems very "flat" for most of the film, which is a shame. Any cultural differences are just ignored, or treated with a nod and a wink, which is also a shame.
I really wouldn't bother.
