The Kitchen Toto (1987)

£0.00


Country: GB
Technical: col 95m
Director: Harry Hook
Cast: Bob Peck, Phyllis Logan, Edwin Mahinda

Synopsis:

Around 1950, Kenya: a preacher's son is victim both of a nationalistic tribe of his own people and the whites with whom he takes refuge.

Review:

Good, but like many British films of the decade a string of dramatic incidents rather than a dynamic whole, and the downbeat ending seems oddly perfunctory. Appearing about the same time as White Mischief, this at least had white characters who were balanced representations.
