Mogambo

(1953)Directed by John Ford116 minAdventure, Drama, Romance
“Flaming love found in the savage heart of the jungle!”

A boat to the interior of Kenya brings Eloise Kelly (Ava Gardner), an American socialite who was not supposed to be there, to the camp of white hunter Victor Marswell (Clark Gable). Soon after, an anthropologist, Donald Nordley (Donald Sinden), arrives with his wife Linda (Grace Kelly), and Victor finds himself between two women. John Ford shoots the whole thing in Technicolor against the open African landscape, and the heat seems to settle on every scene.
