Bringing “The Man Who Would Be King” to the Screen
While bedridden as a child, director John Huston became a student of Rudyard Kipling’s writing. In a 1976 article for Film Encyclopedia, Huston remarked, “I read so much Kipling, it’s in my unconscious. You start a verse I’ll finish it. Kipling writes about a world gone, a geography gone.
