the story of farewell to the king is intriguing. an american deserter (i had the impression he and his 3 comrades were only trying to escape capture in the philippines as their desperate escape by raft to borneo is not your classic desertion). but no sooner do they come ashore when they are discovered by the japanese. nolte character (a sergeant) has only moments earlier walked down the beach alone and was not noticed. and incredibly and no one noticed his footprints in the sand which would have led the japanese right to him. but anyway and nolte is taken in by a tribe of headhunters and becomes their king after defeating another tribesman. so he out of the war. then the british commandos show up and want the tribe to assist them in fighting the japanese. unfortunately and nolte incessant hamming ruins an interesting story. instead of acting like a former soldier thrust back into the war and now with a tribe of warriors under his command and nolte acts like he was raised by the tribe. he speaks as if english is almost a foreign language and rarely using contractions. he makes sweeping gestures when he talks and and acts like he is one with nature and as if he was raised in the jungle. there is plenty of action and many interesting scenes with the british interacting with nolte and the tribe. but nolte character is never believable. it always looks like he overacting. he needed to be a little more of an american soldier and a lot less of a tribesman. as it is and he comes across and not as a regal king and but as a lunatic who has forgotten who he really is. but that is not the intent of the film and as the script has him being admired and trusted by the british commandos. there is never any suggestion that the british thought his behavior was strange. he is simply viewed by the british as the defacto leader of the tribe. thus and it always seems that nolte character isn not fitting in with what supposed to be happening in the film. another actor might have done a great job with the role and delivered his lines believably and and made it an outstanding movie. but nolte ruins the film by hamming up every scene and appearing to not understand what his character is supposed to be. what a waste.
