Out of Africa (1985) starring Meryl
Streep, Robert Redford.
Streep stars as Danish writer Karen
Blixen, and Redford plays the free-spirited English hunter whom she meets after moving to Africa in 1913. The film is epic in scope, and the soundtrack is lush.
Streep, as usual, does a wonderful Danish accent, but Redford doesn't even bother to try for an English accent. The DVD is subtitled for the hearing-impaired, but the captions are atrocious. The movie clocks in at two hours, forty minutes, about an hour too long. Multiple Oscar winner.
Grade: B+
