At one point Connery delivers a speech about the proper, honorable combat between warriors. First is with swords; sometimes that is not possible and rifles are used. He then laments the introduction of cannon and the machine guns that 'shoot many bullets promiscuously', and mentione the lack of honor in such weapons.

I belive this is the "Wind and the Lion." Always interesting to hear an arab with a Scottish accent. Been a long time since I saw the movie, but I remember it was a lot of fun. Seems like he kidnapped Candice Bergan and fought Teddy Roosevelt's (Brian Kieth) marines.
