Thanks.
I always check Ebay and found a site www.santaflix.com that carries a new DVD (with Edward G. Robinson)... if that is the one. Hope this helps you, Dallas59!! The site said it was 27 dollars and can be shipped within 3 days.
I’ve never heard of this, but now I have to see it. I really like Eddie Robinson.
His dying scene in Soylent Green gets me every time.
How ironic. I...almost out of the blue Google searched this movie about two weeks ago. I must have been watching something that reminded me of that story. I remember watching this movie on TV years ago, and absolutely loved it! I was fascinated with this young boys journey through Africa, but don’t remember the details of the story very well.
I may have to order a copy for my kids too. Thanks for bringing it up.
Sheesh.......
It’s directed by the late great Sandy Mackendrick, who also directed THE LADYKILLERS and SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS, among other terrific movies.
