Out Of Africa

Initially set on being a dairy farmer, the aristocratic Karen Blixen (Meryl Streep) travels to Africa to join her husband, Bror (Klaus Maria Brandauer), who instead spends their money on a coffee plantation. After discovering Bror is unfaithful, Karen develops feelings for hunter Denys (Robert Redford), but realizes he prefers a simplistic lifestyle compared to her upper class background. The two continue on until a series of events force Karen to choose between her love and personal growth.

Critic Reviews:

• " Sydney Pollack's glorious and stirring Out of Africa is a big-screen epic in the very best sense. " – Rick Lyman
• " The movie could probably be shorter, but I didn't wish it so. " – Paul Byrnes
• " There comes a time in movie addicts' lives when their souls cry out for the kind of film that can fill the screen with magnificent vistas, grand passions and charismatic actors. That's why the arrival of Out of Africa is cause for cheering. " – Bob Thomas
