Found it free on YouTube and holy hell what a gem. Classic Michael Caine and Sean Connery was all I needed but the story was amazing as well. Was this film big at the time it came out? Looks like mid 70s.

Critically acclaimed but only made a little profit. 12 million total sales. Budget 8 million.

Excellent film! I've read in several places that the reason most people gave for its poor box office was that the public still wanted to see Connery as Bond.

Excellent movie directed by John Huston and based on a story by Rudyard Kipling

Kipling was a pretty good writer.

It was a moderate success, if I recall correctly. Not a huge hit..,
