In German-occupied East Africa, 1914, gin-soaked riverboat captain Charlie Allnut (Humphrey Bogart, in his Oscar®-winning role) and prim English missionary Rose Sayer (Katharine Hepburn) escape down a treacherous river in a rickety old boat, along the way they become the most unlikely of allies. 

Shot on location in the Congo and Uganda, The African Queen is all of thrilling, romantic and funny, and continuity legend Angela Allen had a front row seat sat by legendary director John Huston’s side.

With an introduction from a special guest to be confirmed very soon.
