Viewing Notes
A minimalist film from Cornel Wilde starring Cornel Wilde. There’s probably 4 pages of dialogue in the entire screenplay as it’s mostly a visual feast shot on location in Rhodesia. It’s basically his take on THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME in which he spends most of the runtime eluding the tribal hunters his jackass safari buddy embarrassed. This was a nice film to see in the Secret Cinema.
