1st August 2002Who put the money up for ZULU?
By Martin Everett
We know that Stanley Baker was the mastermind the project to make the movie of the defence of Rorke's Drift. But does anyone know who actually financed the making of the 1964 film 'Zulu.?

I believe Joe Levine was hopimg to start a hollywood type studio system in South Africa,called diamond productions,however it did not work out.Zulu wasw by far the most succesful film diamond productions was involved with.Ithink Zulu made about 12 million pounds in the 60s and probably makes money today.
