I refer to "Foul view of the Cape" (yesterday). The final paragraph begins "Kemp, the film's only South African actor." This is false.

As far as I know, Orlando Bloom and Forest Whitaker are the only US actors in Zulu. It was filmed in Cape Town, and to have only one South African in the film would be strange. The film also stars Tanya van Graan, Sven Ruygrok, Tinarie van Wyk Loots and Adrian Galley, to name but a few.
