The Man Who Would Be King (1975) / The Road to El Dorado (2000) - It's tough to be a god
Brian dusts off the old "Violent Ends" episode format, comparing two films with similar premises but different tenors of outcome -- one happy, one bloody. Here, they consider the 1975 John Huston epic about Sean Connery and Michael Caine infiltrating a native tribe and the 2000 DreamWorks musical comedy. Join as they discuss the depiction of imperialism and Indigenous cultures in movies like these, the adult innuendos in Road to El Dorado, and stiff upper lip English self-sacrifice.
