Knowing nothing about this film, I did a google search and came up with this.



What I gather, is that this is a movie about some guy running around in his undies. 

When did Trevor's life story become a movie?
This is my awesome signature.  Jealous?

:bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle:

That's it and that is the late great Ken Gampu to Cornel Wilde's left.

The film is essentially a remake of the Richard Connell story The Most Dangerous Game where some unlucky bugger is hunted for sport. I was on a discussion panel with its' musical director Professor Andrew Tracey who told me that he still receives royalty payments for his work on the film which is nice.  :smile:

If Trevor is naked, we ALL need to pray . . .

"Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone."

I got my official invite to the 2015 National Arts Festival this morning: www.nationalartsfestival.co.za and we will be screening Jannie Totsiens [Johnny Farewell] and Katrina in July there.

Two of the most controversial films ever made in SA:both of them attacked apartheid head on but also in such a way that those charged with seeing what was fit for the SA public to see, failed to see the true message behind the films.  :teddyr:

Katrina is tremendously powerful.  It holds a mirror to the times.  It was done so well, it is no wonder 'they' missed the message.  And so very, very fitting - what a comment on 'them' that they missed it!   :thumbup:

The idiots in charge back in 1969 - censors, government - thought Katrina was a love story! Oopsie.  :wink:
