Review

Great, entertaining character study: Bogart as an earthy,
individualistic steamboat captain; Hepburn as prim
missionary. They are in Africa during the war, and
circumstances bring them together with an opportunity to
help the cause by attacking a German gunship. Script by
James Agee, from novel by Forster.
