#ThrowBackThursday - Hatari! The Movie, 1962

"Hatari!" means "danger" in Swahili! There are so many great shots in this film, I had to post more than one! Movie trivia, Henry Mancini wrote "The Baby Elephant Walk" for "Hatari!" And, The Duke did ALL of his own stunts for the film! The context of the film, trapping wild animals to sell to zoos, if taken in regard to the times, in my opinion, shows a step toward today's conservation movement. Click here for film description.
