Africa in Film

When you think of Africa, what films come to mind? I've been watching one that I'll discuss more in depth in the coming days, but am curious what films other folk associate with the Dark Continent. Holla.

In other news, Bigtooth is right. Ohio and Michigan had a wicked spat over the Toledo Strip back in the day. Atta boy, Biggie!

First film that came to my mind was The Sheltering Sky. When I thought about it a bit more, I remembered the (more recent ones) The Constant Gardener and Blood Diamond. Funnily enough, two out of three come from novels...

You haven't been writing to the blog a lot recently, I hope that means you are concentrating on your other writings...

The Gods Must Be Crazy, The Power of One, The Last King of Scotland.

A significant part of Ohio was also once covered by an enormous wetland called the Black Swamp. No shit.
