The African Queen

The African Queen is two greats giving some of their best performances. I think it can be easy to understate this film and its importance as on the surface it’s a simple story of love against the odds. However, Bogart and Hepburn really do a fantastic job at making the story much more than it otherwise would be, I’m not sure there are many who can show such chemistry in front of the screen whilst also being naturally talented. It’s a great watch.
