The African Queen
Passion burns as hot as the blazing sun in this classic romantic adventure. Finding themselves together on a tiny boat in the heart of Africa, the impossibly prim missionary Katharine Hepburn warms up to the coarse, hard-drinking Humphrey Bogart (in an Oscar-winning performance) as the unlikely couple overcomes whitewater rapids, takes on the Germans—and falls in love.
After the screening, please join us for a Valentine's Day champagne reception.
John Huston. 1951. 105 m. NR. UK/US, English/German/Swahili with subtitles. 20th Century Fox.
