The African Queen

a film by John Huston

What not to love about The African Queen? Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn are wonderful throughout, while the Germans, of course, are villainous and not too bright. Special effects — all-over-the-place rear projection and especially the attack of the greyish blobs — are so bad, even by the 1951 standards, they are actually good.
