    >Hatari!

    This is the Swahili word for “danger”.

    I remember seeing it on lots of signs when I was driving through Tanzania.

    One of my favorites when I was a kid. Those cute baby elephants. And Elsa Martinelli.

    Probably couldn’t be made today, their profession is not politically correct.

    Should be shown in a trio along with Donovan’s Reef and McLintock.

    Also one of the most iconic tunes from a movie, playing in the background as John Wayne, Hardy Krüger and three baby elephants are chasing “Mama Tembo” Elsa Martinelli.

    The scene that stuck with me from that silly movie was when they used a rocket to launch a huge net over a giant tree full of monkeys, a tree which is then cut down (fuck environmental concerns, right?) –allowing the audience to see that the monkeys are just dummies glued to the branches.
