Adventure/drama movie with nice performances , love stories , emotion , thrills and stunning scenario . This brilliant movie ablazes with action , entertainment , excitement and dangers such as the screen has never seen by that time. A cross-eyed savannah melodrama with a lot of wildlfe , in which a triangular romance takes place among James Craig-BelindaLee -Patrick McGoohan . The plot is light and simple as a young arrives in Africa and becomes involved with two loves . Trio of protagonists are pretty well , giving decent acting.
Special mention for the colorful cinematography by Harry Waxman , though a perfect remastering being really necessary . As well as evocative and intriguing musical score by James Bernard , Hammer's ordinary composer . The motion picture was professionally directed by Ken Annakin. This good filmmaker was a Brit craftsman who directed all kinds of genres with penchant for adventure genre , such as : The Sword and the Rose , Land of Fury , The story of Robin Hood and his Merry Men, Third Man on the mountain, The planter's wife , Paper Tiger , Pirate Movie , The Fifth Musketeer , The Swiss family Robinson, Those magnificent men in their flying machines , Those daring young men and their jaunty jalopies, Call of the Wild , among others . Rating : 6/10 , acceptable and passable romance/adventure film
