Zulu Dawn, prequel to Zulu, which I cited in a previous post. Not as good as Zulu but more politically correct. I think the same writer did both. I don't know why I was semi-obsessed with these films at some point. They gave me nightmares, but I always watched them when they came on TV. I honestly can't imagine having the courage the Zulu warriors had, or the British soldiers. I am pretty sure I would have run away.

Beowulf -- the Robert Zemeckis one. Violent and not true to the story. But exciting.

Changeling 2008 Based partly on real-life events – the 1928 "Wineville Chicken Coop" kidnapping and murder case in Los Angeles, California – the film stars Angelina Jolie as a woman supposedly reunited with a boy she quickly realizes isn't her missing son. When, however, she tries to demonstrate this to the police and city authorities, she is vilified as delusional and an unfit mother.
