African Queen, a great post war movie which I have watched several times now. Each time I re-discover my love for the movies of the 50s! Shot in Technicolor, the sets, location and details were enhanced and vivid to many who had never traveled. A timeless work, shows the determination of a woman, her patriotism and love for her country, and finally her ability of find love when less expected. Although by today’s standards, a film with limited special effects, it offers magnificent actors, and a great score. The sounds of an orchestra enhance the experience of each action and lines delivered frame by frame. It reminds us of an old era that was enchanted and golden!
