An interesting setting, unlike the standard Bogie Fare...
by forsythe60-22000-10-03
8/10

"I liked this film. While a little predictable and such, it did offer Bogart and Sylvia Sidney, both of whom I admire a great deal. The scenes with the tigers were interesting. The film, while mostly melodramatic, was humourous in some portions. As a die hard Bogie fan, I can't say as to whether or not others would like this though. I am a tainted Bogie fan, and so my opinion is always slanted......"

The lions were from Gay's Lion Farm in El Monte, California. In operation from 1925 to 1942 when it closed due to war-time meat rationing, it was a popular tourist attraction and lion breeding center.
