   “I had a farm in Africa.” These words open a lush and beautiful film about one woman’s impact on the lives of those around her. Out of Africa, based on the works of Isak Dension (the pseudonym of the lead character), is a showcase for Meryl Streep. With her Danish accent, Streep brings Karen Blixen vividly to life. Though the film is less a showcas...

   Is out of Africa a good movie?

   • It contributes to the film’s overall lack of direction. Having won seven Academy Awards in 1985, one would expect Out of Africa to be an indelible love story that transcends the art form. Unfortunately, Out of Africa, though a decidedly good film, hardly belongs in history books.

   What is the movie 'Out of Africa' about?

   • The Hollywood film, 'Out of Africa,' is set mostly on a Kenyan farm and is a colonial fantasy. In journalist Aidan Hartley’s book 'Africa,' the progress of the continent is measured by how hospitable it is to white people and animals. Hartley, a war correspondent turned Wild Life columnist for The (British) Spectator magazine, provides insight into this perspective.

   Who plays the Baroness in 'out of Africa'?

   • After the man and woman are safe, the man sees that the woman has bitten her lip in anxiety. He reaches out and touches the blood. Then they hold each other tightly. If you can sense the passion in that scene, then you may share my emjoyment of “Out of Africa,” which is one of the great recent epic romances. The baroness is played by Meryl Streep.

   A CINEMATIC VIEW. Out of Africa is a mixed bag. Its good points are so good that I wish they were present in a bet­ter film, but its weaknesses finally outweigh the pluses. Filming author Isak Dinesen’s literary compo­sition, Out of Africa, has long proven an obstacle to screenwriters. (Not having read Dinesen’s book, I have to take the ...
