Subject: RE: BS: Your Favorite Political Films?
I really like Hatari! with John Wayne.   

The multi-level plot covers sex, drugs, race relations, freedom, democracy. Almost all of the great questions asked my mankind are explored.

How about the scene where Red Buttons, a Jewish comedian, sets off para-military explosives to launch a net over a tree in the African savannah, ensnaring and a band of free and happy monkeys.

Profound I say. Real deep stuff.
