I just saw an old movie with Clark Gable, Mogambo.
In the movie he both cleans and uses a rifle.
It looks like a classic safari rifle without scopes.

Always when I see a rifle I try do determin what type it is. ( Im not so sucessful but it is fun trying )

There must be a lot of movies where the story is about anything else than hunting but where hunting is included.

Do you know about other movies ?

Three Stooges, several episodes with Africa and guns, good luck though I could'nt figure out what kind they were.
 
Jumanji, with Robin Williams, the guy that was hunting him had a DG rifle unlike any other.
 
The Last Safari (1967) with Stewart Granger
Red Dust (1932) Clark Gable
 
The Naked Prey (1966) Cornel Wilde

Trader Horn (1931) Harrey Carry

White Hunter, Black Heart (1990) Clint Eastwood
 
The Macomber Affair with Gregory Peck. Good shooting scenes.
Safari with Victor Mature
King Solomons Mines with Stewie Granger
 
Another decent quality hunting movie : THE HUNTER, and it is a story taking place in Tasmania, that of a man in pursuit of the last Tasmanian Tiger in spectacular scenery. Starring Willem Dafoe (Platoon, The English Patient, Born on the Fourth of July, Mississippi Burning etc) and Sam Neil (Jurassic Park). The movie is made in Australia.

Hatari is a must and personal favorite of mine as I hunted very near where it was filmed.
 
My favorite, as far as hunting, scenery and old rifles is concerned, is a movie called 'JEREMIAH JOHNSON' starring Robert Redford. Was filmed all over Utah, if I remember correctly.

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
