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
  • Out of Africa
  • Safari
  • Simba
  • Something of Value
  • Tanganyika
  • The African Queen
  • The Constant Gardener

  • The Snows of Kilimanjaro
  • White Hunter Black Heart

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!

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
