Hatari is a 1962 American film directed by Hawks and starring John Wayne Marion Mitchell Morrison, born Marion Robert Morrison, better known by his stage name John Wayne, was an American film actor, director, and producer.

He epitomized rugged masculinity and has become an enduring American icon. He is famous for his distinctive voice, walk, and height. The title means “danger” in Swahili, which was mentioned in the film as well.

Portraying a group of hunters, the film presents an interesting antiquated portrait of Africa still dominated by non-Africans.

The film is extremely popular because of the dramatic wildlife chases and the magnificent backdrop scenery of Mount Meru, a dormant volcano.
