You're some well read fellas. Kinda random, but can anyone recommend a good book about the British Raj?

The la Marseilles scene always gets me. And Bogey is a joy to watch. But I have to agree that the movie is overrated. When I compare it with some of my other favorite movies, it comes out looking like a flat and pious wartime picture....
