Another in the seemingly-endless run of the Darkest-Africa exposed genre of documentary features, some of which weren't filmed in Africa. This one was, but the hand-to-hand combat between the Great White Hunter and the Seven-Foot gorilla smacked of staging.—Les Adams <[email protected]>

Ben Burbridge leads an expedition into Africa in search of six gorillas to bring back alive to captivity. On the way to the interior, the Burbridge party meets with a tribe of pygmies, whose friendship is purchased by means of a gift of salt and safety pins. Other events of interest include: the shooting of an elephant and three lions, the strange contortions of a python, the fording of a stream thick with crocodiles, and the eventual capture of the baby gorillas.
