Expected by his coach to contribute significantly to the team, Henry is overwhelmed by the demands on his time, the “big business” aspect of college sports, and the fact that he never fully learned to read.

Plot Outline: The Leiningen South American cocoa plantation is threatened by a 2-mile-wide, 20-mile-long column of army ants.
Plot: Its 1901. At 19, tough, stubborn Christopher Leiningen came to South America and built levees to claim thousands of acres of Rio Negro river land for a chocolate plantation. Now 34, with no knowledge of women, he recruits a mail-order bride in New Orleans. Shes beautiful, independent, and arrives ready to be his stalwart helpmate; however, no one has told him shes a widow. He rejects her. During the next week, as she awaits the boat to take her back to the US, they learn that legions of army ants will strike in a few days time. She joins the fight to save the plantation; their courage and his probable loss of all hes worked for may crack his resolve to send her away.

Goofs: We know about 1 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Boom mic visible: During the first meeting/”confrontation” between Joanna and Christopher there comes a point in the conversation when he asks her if she is laughing at him. As she turns from the dresser to face him at the very upper left corner for approx. 35 frames the moving shadow of what may well be a boom mic can easily be seen as it follows the motion.

Trivia: There are 5 entries in the trivia list – like these:

While preparing to shoot the sequence where Leiningen pours oil on himself to repel the ants, Charlton Heston was told that oil would ruin his wardrobe so syrup would be used instead. Heston spent a miserable day on location as the “oil” attracted every insect for miles.

William Conrad, who plays the commissioner in this movie, played the lead role of Leiningen in the 1948 radio play, “Leiningen vs. the Ants”, the original story upon which this movie was based.

Charlton Heston improvised during the argument scene between Eleanor Parker and himself. It was not scripted that he splash perfume all over her. This move intensified the action and a surprised Parker was able to react accordingly.

Plot: Based on the novel by Bernard Cornwell, “Sharpes Waterloo” brings maverick British officer Lt. Col. Richard Sharpe to his last fight against the French, in June of 1815. Sharpe is assigned to the Prince of Oranges staff, and is rejoined with Sgt. Harper (retired) and riflemen Hagman and Harris at the famous battles of Quatre Bras and Waterloo.

Hougoumont was indeed a location at Waterloo. The character of Macduff is based on a similar character in the Coldstream Guards who closed the doors on the French invaders.

Paul Bettany has played two characters in the Sharpe TV series. One was the Prince of Orange and he also makes a brief appearance as a common soldier.
