The British Commander was a fool , his job was saved beacuse he was well in with Queen Vic.
He divided his forces , the British failed beacuse they could not get their fire co ordinated and their position was over run.

It has been said that Rorke's Drift had more awards given out than might be expected because the defeat at the hands of the Zulus had to be covered with some good news and Rorke's Drift became that news.

I actually saw this movie yesterday. They won that engagement but got virtually wiped out when pay back came for it a bit later.
