Product Details:Game for Vultures is a British thriller film with an all-star cast, (Richard Harris, Richard Roundtree, Denholm Elliott, Joan Collins), set in the late 1970’s, the last years of the Rhodesian Bush War, David Swansey (Harris) is an importer of goods to be embargoed country. He is hired by the Rhodesian government to arrange the purchase and transportation of a number of Bell Huey helicopters, for use against terrorists. Gideon Marunga (Roundtree) is one of those insurgents, a lead in raids against the Rhodesian Army and less willing participant in massacres of unarmed civilians and missionaries. Word of the deal reaches supporters of the insurgency, who apply political pressure to halt the sale. The helicopters reach the Republic of South Africa but the international furor has brought the shipment to a halt. Swansey and a group of Rhodesians arrange (with the help of the secretly sympathetic South African government) to make a raid on the airbase where the disassembled helicopters are located, to steal them by air. The insurgents learning of the plans have other ideas and a bitter battle ensues but who’s really winning this battle? Nobody. . . nobody’s winning.
