Richard Attenborough takes command in the postcolonial war film GUNS AT BATASI (1964). It manages to be suspenseful and claustrophobic. A fair criticism by modern audiences are the underlying xenophobic fears of granting Africans independence during the 1960s. It might make the racial politics dated by the present but one can also suggest that simply was the concern of tradition bound Europeans at the time.
