I always liked Richard Todd. Thanks for uploading this film.
He's very good looking. The part doesn't have a lot of range, but it's an entertaining enough film. I'm glad I saw it.
What a charming film.
Dr. Marianne Koch, born in 1931, 92 now, actress and real life GP ❤
Very Good! Great cast. Thank you Retro.
The sound mixing at the start of this movie is awful, but it gets better when you get past the first 5 minutes or so. I'm glad I got to see it. So thanks for putting it up for us to see!
Richard Todd was in one of my favorite movies,Stage Fright.
Thanks for the upload.
I love these old british films. Thank you for sharing it.
I remember this film because I've seen it before! And it hasn't changed much.
😃
What an interesting flim, have watched it a couple of years back, time to make a revisit I think.
Not a high cost production but a fine film just the same. Interesting plot and great location filming. Thanks for sharing
Very nice film , thanks for the upload
Very nice movie
Richard todd i renember him in a few good films a good film with a nice plot
Really simple plot. Almost corny. But entertaining and cute.
If they were trying for "African Queen" style, it sure didn't succeed. Predictable plot, dialog, and attempts at humor. Humdrum but watchable.
@@nedludd7622 It's FAR from corny. One has to wonder what the problem is in this OP's head. Some kind of jealousy? The plot is reasonably good and so are the characters, as well as the great locations.
The African Queen itself wasn't great, and was very predictable, with Bogart being Bogart and Katherine being Katherine, as always. Both were terrible actors who made all of their films boring. They only got by on their names, while being pretentious and far too self important.
This one is not the greatest movie ever, but it's NOT boring. The story is quite unpredictable and the location shots are great. Richard Todd is gorgeous, and is an actor with a lot of range, although he isn't able to really shine here.
I enjoyed this one a lot! You can't expect every film to be another Lawrence Of Arabia, or one the best of the best. This one is quite good.
No actors were injured in the making of this film.
Good to know
Really?😂
The colours of that era are amazing! What a difference now that Africa does not play a part in our hearts and minds anymore.....as if it seeced to exist
Very realistic in killing a man with one bullet unlike Hollywood where you had unload 10 bullets from a revolver.
Why would you camp on the shore with a river full of crocs 10’ away ? Not to mention hippos.
Marianne Cook in the credits?? It's German actress Marianne Koch.
I am enjoying this movie however It is sometimes rather maddening that the sound man didn't get the balance quite right. There are times that no matter how much I increase the volume and replay, I cannot discern some of the dialog as it is obscured by the background jungle noises apparently from insects and such.
But it's in color jupiiii😅!!!
I very much agree with dinacox. The sound mixing is terrible for the first 5 minutes or so, but after that it gets much better. That's very common here on YT, but usually the problem occurs with documentaries. But it does get better, so just push through the first few minutes.
@@cattymajiv I thought it was worst about 15 minutes or so in, when they were camping out overnight by the river, and in one or two other outdoor scenes. But you're right, it did seem to get better as it went on.
The _Zaire_ has come down in the world - she used to be a 2-deck stern-wheeler with a Hotchkiss cannon and a couple of Maxims.
The rich guy has a awful taste in boats.little clown boat.
What a kicker of a ending...
Like this Movie 👍🇳🇴
The great movie
a lots changed since 1963
Marisol !!!!
Good entertainment.
Suspence,thriller and crime movie
good lizard
Jeremy Lloyd looks so handsome as a young man and today better as an older man
Croc got ‘him then
Probably not a good idea to go sloshing about in crocodile-infested swamps when you're a baddie on the run from the police in a good old-fashioned adventure movie. That's all I'm saying...
After the first 15 minutes I couldn't watch anymore
decent movie
And call it joking
Richard Todd is long way from Sherwood forest!
Ah, but he liked making films with lots of water.
He's such a hottie! I love to look at him in his younger days, but even here, as an older guy, he still looks really good.
Spoiler alert the croc got his man.
Provoking all your coking anger
The good old days of the waning of colonialism.
The natives havent done much since ..except butcher eachother .
Oh my god there's always got to be one hasn't there! Do you think you're going to change history?
Indubidubly 🙂
British lives and culture matter to Britain and British people first. 👍🍺🇦🇺
Colonialism = civilisation. No colonialism = barbarism.
