Animal catchers in Africa.
Sinekatalog’s take
Howard Hawks's easygoing African adventure follows animal catchers with John Wayne. Loose, funny and full of spectacular chases, with Henry Mancini's Baby Elephant Walk, it is a warm hangout movie.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
