THE AFRICAN QUEEN (1951)

Set in Africa, during WW II, when the Rev. Samuel Sayer suddenly passes away, steam boat "captain," Charlie Allnut, finds himself transporting Sayer's sister, Rose, back to civilization. In the meantime, however, the two will tackle their antithetical personalities, and, of course, the Germans, in this classic blockbuster Romance.

The noteworthy cast includes: Humphrey Bogart, Katharine Hepburn, Robert Morley, Theodore Bikel, and Peter Bull.

#17 on the AFI Top 100.

Director, John Huston, delivered up a perfect piece of entertainment with this film. Huston received a nomination for best directing.
