Death Drums Along the River on More 4 - Britmovie

Lord Brett · 08-05-2008, 01:22 PM

Did anyone catch Death Drums Along the River on More 4 yesterday? I recorded it on my hard drive recorder, but the first ten minutes or so had no sound.

I wonder if this was a glitch with my recorder or a fault at More 4's end.

I had to laugh at Marriane Koch's name being anglicised to Cook in the credits.

I always laugh at Toddy's odd proportions with his evelator shoes and the odd way he walks due to his gate being altered. The films almost hit the right note for an adaptation of the novels.

I enjoy DDATR ... it's an OK film and Toddy is always worth watching. I have never seen the other one ... Coast of Skeletons. Any good?

Similar flavour and again quite close to the Wallace's general atmosphere

But did anyone else get the sound fault?

Also, does the film have any alternate titles? I noticed that on More 4's print the title was on a black card, but the credits before and after were over a background at an African dockside.
