For a film of “excitement, wit and intelligence” (Rex Reed, New York Observer), your hunt is over. As star and director of White Hunter, Black Heart, Clint Eastwood crafts one of the most acclaimed movies of his enduring career. He plays brilliant, driven filmmaker John Wilson (loosely based on the legendary John Huston), who’s determined to turn his new project in Africa into a grand personal adventure hunting a wild elephant. Jeff Fahey, Marisa Berenson and George Dzundza co-star in this rugged and absorbing tale from the novel by co-screenwriter Peter Viertel, who worked with Huston in Africa in 1950 on The African Queen. Filmed in Zimbabwe and London, White Hunter, Black Heart is a bold trek into the heart of adventure. Set your sights.
