Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: The African Queen

This 1951 classic features some Hollywood greats: Humphrey Bogart, Katherine Hepburn, and directed by John Huston. Set in Africa during World War I, Bogart plays a steamer captain who offers Hepburn’s character safe passage out - leading to a clash of personalities between the two, amidst what is often described as some of the most influential action scenes in Hollywood. We throwback to the movie and discuss the power of personality on screen.
