- The boy Kim knows how to scrounge up a hot meal in India's bustling cities, how to scamper catlike across rooftops and disguise himself as a local and conceal his Anglo heritage. To Kim, these are just ways to be free. To colonial British intelligence, they're skills it knows will be useful when it makes Kim a spy.

Movie Reviews of Kim
Movie Review: Kim
Summary: 5 Stars
"Kim", based on a story by Rudyard Kipling and filmed on location
in India in 1950, is a fascinating movie. It is the type of movie
that you can watch over and over again and still be entertained.
Essentially an adventure movie, it also has moments of drama,
amusement, devotion, suspense, intrigue and action and you are
totally absorbed in young Kim's wonderous world. It is a
colorful display of life in India at the turn of last century
when England ruled this vast empire.
The story deals with the continuing infiltration into India of
the Soviet Union and its satellites through the Kyber Pass in
their attempt to dominate the northern provinces of India.
Mahbub Ali "Red Beard" (Errol Flynn) works for the British
Secret Service who are attempting to foil the plot. He enlists
the aid of his young friend Kim (Dean Stockwell) who is an
orphaned white boy and a product of the back streets and
alleyways. Kim is used as a courier and a spy. He is also
a devoted disciple of a Buddhist priest (Paul Lucas) and he
helps him in his quest to find a sacred river. The priest
returns the favour and for his friendship and devotion pays
for the boy's education at a military school.
The leader of the Secret Service is Colonel Creighton
(Robert Douglas) and other members are Hurree Chunder
(Cecil Kelloway) and Lurgan Sahib (Arnold Moss).
One of my favourite segments of the movie is when young Kim
is placed in the care of Lurgan Sahib who teaches Kim the
art of observation and remembering what he has seen down to
the last detail - to-day commonly called "Kim's Game".
The entire cast is outstanding and in particular Errol Flynn,
Dean Stockwell and Paul Lucas.
Great entertainment.
