Out of Africa-the 1937 African Memoirs of Karen Blixen

I Have a Farm in Africa
This is one gem of a movie.

It chronicles the life and times of Karen Blixen while in Kenya and how she lived and worked among the Kikuyu tribe.

Romance in the Kenyan Bush
Starring the screen greats, Robert Redford and Meryl Streep, you can see the spectacular vista of green of the Kenyan grass-lands from the air, by jeep and by train from Mombasa in Out of Africa.


Frolicking
The direction by Sidney Pollack is fantastic and the John Barry music score is beyond compare.

Sad memoirs but hauntingly memorable on film

Spectacular Sights via the Plane Flight
Great re-visit down memory lane.
