I would like to take some time to discuss one of my favorite movies of all time, the African Queen.  Starring Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn, directed by  Jon Huston.  The man who also brought us Key Largo, the Treasure of Sierra Madre, and the Maltese Falcon.  All of which starred Bogart, however I find that the African Queen could quite possibly be the best of them all.  The artistry between Bogart and Hepburn, coinciding with the absolute impeccable direction from Huston provides us with classic themes of cinema, exploring both love and war.  I mean, how is it possible for one man to direct all of these films.  Are you kidding me?  Huston directed some of the most important american films ever.   As for the African Queen, you really cannot go wrong with Bogart and Hepburn.  I like how Bogart is reduced to this dirty, crude captain of a ship, something that we didn't see very often in any of his films.  On top of the connection between the two main characters, and watching them go from loathing one another to a gradual love, the Film was shot on location in Uganda and the Congo.   This was 1952, and to imagine how difficult it must have been to shoot on location during that time, let alone create such a masterpiece, is simply unfathomable.  If you haven't seen it in a while, or simply have not seen it at all, I implore you sit and watch this film.  When it is over, you will want to start the DVD over and watch it again.
