The African Queen (1951)



The African Queen is one of those movies that is much better than the book, at least in my opinion. I guess why I love the movie over the book is that in the movie Rose and Charlie actually fall in love whereas in the book they get married simply because Charlie “compromised” Rose. The movie is exciting. Taking place during WWI, Rose and Charlie are attempting to get down the river to a large lake where a large German battleship is stationed. They are planning on blowing up the battleship with Charlie’s boat, The African Queen. Rose is played by Katherine Hepburn and Charlie is played by Humphrey Bogart. The movie is great and is fun to watch!
