HATARI! (1962) is a gorgeous Technicolor adventure set in old Tanganiyka, the sort of movie that, because of modern restrictions against animal abuse, will never be made again. Scenes here of catching alive a stampeding wildebeast, giraffe and rhino are not simulations. Men using jeeps and trucks race alongside terrorized galloping animals and skillfully slip ropes around their necks. It's a most impressive thing to see, if somewhat cruel.
Injuries are common to this line of endeavor. In the opening hunt sequence, Bruce Cabot (as 'Indian') is horned in the thigh by an enraged rhino. He nearly bleeds to death during a five hour trip to the nearest hospital and is left permanently disabled by the wound.
Weakest element is the romantic pairing of 27-year-old Elsa Martinelli with Sean Mercer (Wayne), a man twice her age. As with most Hollywood scripts of that era, their union, however unlikely, is inevitable. Here, the Italian fashion model is 'Dallas,' a photographer newly arrived from a Swiss zoo whose purpose is to take snaps of critters being snagged on the hoof. To do so, she must bump along the dusty African plains with Sean and crew.
The greenhorn in their midst quickly becomes a seasoned safari vet. Her adoption against Sean's wishes of an orphaned infant elephant soon brings two more into their compound. Dallas leading her "babies" to a nearby watering hole provides a golden opportunity for one of Hank Mancini's most renowned tunes, "Baby Elephant Walk."
In another example of cradle robbing, 49-year-old Red Buttons (as comic sidekick 'Pockets') has the hots for Brandy (Michèle Girardon), a gal half his age. When Pockets tumbles from a fence, Brandy's overly-solicitous concern is evidence that the feeling is mutual.
Rightly nominated for a cinematography Oscar, action sequences in this exotic Howard Hawks dramedy more than make up for its curious May/September romance interruptions. Main cast includes Hardy Krüger, Gérard Blain and Valentin de Vargas.
