Mogambo

One of my favorite Africa movies!
 
Snows of Kilimanjaro. Hatari. The African Queen. Classics that would never be made today. Each were Hollywood’s version of Africa, but they sure kindled a fire in this boy’s heart! Ended up costing me a small fortune ! ;)
 
Here's a non-exhaustive list of African/Safari movies. Some are great, some not so great.
  • Africa Adventure
  • Beyond Mombasa
  • Bwana Devil
  • Congo Crossing
  • East of Kilimanjaro
  • Hatari!
  • I Dreamed of Africa
  • Killers of Kilimanjaro
  • King Solomon’s Mines
  • Mogambo
  • Nairobi Affair
  • Odanga

There were several versions of "King Soloman's Mines" filmed over the years. The Stewart Granger/Deborah Kerr version is a favorite, but the Paul Roberson/Cedrick Hardwicke movie isn't bad either. Slight variations on the same basic plot.

Twenty years ago Patrick Swayze starred in a remake which is pretty much unwatchable.

The Swayzee remake was about as palatable as Hillary Clinton!

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
