If you loved Farewell to the King, try Der Wind und der Löwe
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by John Milius, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to Farewell to the King, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Der Wind und der Löwe is
You negotiate with tribal warlords on the edge of a Saharan storm. A widowed American mother’s children ride alongside the riders who took her. Gunboats idle off Tangier as tribal drums pace the desert night. The film finds the fleeting moment when honor and empire collide without declaring a winner.
