Actors: Virginia McKenna, Bill Travers,
Geoffrey Keen, Peter Lukoye
Rating: 8 out of 10, Another favorite
from my youth telling the true life story of Elsa the lioness and the Adamsons
who returned her to the wild after raising her as a pet. One of the best film
scores ever along with the incredible nature photography make this more than
worth seeing and it has aged well. I fell hopelessly in love with Virginia
McKenna when I first saw this which may have sent me down a troublesome trail
of absolute fascination bordering on worship of English ladies later in life,
but I digress. It’s a great story beautifully told.
MVP: McKenna, of course, as Joy
Adamson starting me out on English gals
