Hatari! Overview:

Hatari! (1962) was a Action - Adventure Film directed by Howard Hawks and produced by Howard Hawks.

SYNOPSIS

Wayne leads the way in an exciting action adventure about big-game hunters in Africa. The wildlife photography is top-notch and there's just enough of a story to bridge the action sequences. Interesting to watch how the hunters safely capture their prey for sale to zoos.
