Hatari! (1962) John Wayne

Anyone else like this flick? It wasn't your typical "Duke" movie. This one was filmed in Africa and the Duke was a big game capturer. He would catch the animals live for zoos.
I was amazed at the footage of them actually driving alongside some of these animals at full speed and throwing a rope around their neck and then stopping and tying the animals up and putting them in cages. I thought I would see a lot of rear screen projection used... but it was actual footage! That was awesome.
they caught rhinos, giraffes, monkies and wilderbeast.
I didn't like it as much as some of his westerns, but it was a refreshing seeing him do a film like this. It had some comedy and romance in it too. Red Buttons was in a supporting role which gave a lot of the comic relief.
