7cb1d79195 On the mountainous frontier between British India and Afghanistan, circa 1860s, Zarak Khan kisses Salma, the youngest wife of his father, Haji Khan. Outraged, his father orders Zarak to be flogged to death but spares his life at the urging of an elderly Mullah. Zarak now leaves his village and becomes a notorious outlaw, prompting the British to assign a Major Ingram to capture him. Zarak and Ingram have several encounters, developing a grudging respect for each other. When Ingram is captured by Ahmad, one of Zarak&#39;s rivals, Zarak risks his life to save the British officer. An Afghan Outlaw finally saves a British Officer at the cost of his own life. This movie reminds me my childhood, on Sunday afternoons, when I waited for it. Each Sunday, after my home school work. Colourful feature with plenty of charm and action, Victor Mature at his best, even a less famous film if you compare to his previous features. A movie produced by UK movie industry, in the line of BRIGAND OF KANDAHAR, BANDIT OF ZHOBE, NORTHWEST FRONTIER, and some other movies from Korda brothers&#39;s material. The pure British colonialism piece of work. A sort of trade mark,was, in a total different way, the Kitchen Sink kind. The Ken Loach before his time. <br/><br/>Back to this film directed by Terry Young and produced by Albert - James Bond - Broccoli, it is not flawless, but who cares, its only purpose was to entertain. That&#39; all. <br/><br/>I picked it from TCM in a superb LBX copy. I guess it will be released in DVD,was other Columbia adventures yarns, suchBRIGAND OF KANDAHAR, and maybe some other items. In 1956 I was a twelve year old girl, going to the Saturday Matinée with my friends. The things I remember best about Zarak were the marvelous colors of the costumes, the romantic plot line and the desert fighting. It was both a Swash and a Buckle, and made even more exciting by its exotic location. Victor Mature was a bit long in the tooth, and probably could have played the father instead of the son, but he was still in good enough shape for my twelve year old heart to side with the errant lovers. Anita Ekburg didn&#39;t actually act much, but she was spectacular–-in living color and almost in the costumes. In comparison to Victor Matures&#39; be-robed macho, Michael Wilding seemed a bit of a stuffed shirt, leading most twelve year old girls to decide that Arabs were much sexier than Englishmen!
Can someone staring who is the actor and actress starring in this movie? My favourite Bollywood actor is Shah Rukh Khan b2b business model and Hrithik Roshan. Does anyone like these actors?
