The Man Who Would Be King Movie Script

I want flowers strewed along her way.

The wedding ceremony will be surrounded by pomp and circumstance!

Let messengers be sent forth and summon my people from near and far.

Selah.

What are they saying?

How can daughters of men marry gods or devils?

- A god can do anything.

- But it is not proper.

- Who says it isn't?

- All the priests.

Would they put their word against that of a god?

They say let lmbra decide.

Imbra is highest god of all.

And what if lmbra should hold against me?

What'll they do about it?

Am I a dog or a god?

Haven't I put the shadow of my hand over this country?

Do as I say! Send for the girl!

Tell them that's an order!

- Well, Billy, what's going on?

- Signs very bad, Peachy.

Priests open up birds, green inside and stinking horrid. Imbra very angry.

They probably cut the spleen.

The green's only bile.

Don't worry, Billy, the girl won't go up in smoke. I'll guarantee you that.
