Age rating:

Director: 
John Huston

Set in First World War East Africa, The African Queen tells the story of boozy riverboat captain Charlie Allnut (Humphrey Bogart) who eventually falls in love with British missionary Rose Sayer (Katharine Hepburn) after she convinces him to take a dangerous trip upriver and attack a German gunship. The African Queen is well worth watching to see Hollywood stars Bogart and Hepburn’s undeniable chemistry play out on-screen in this tale of love blossoming in the harshest surroundings. 

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) 

RT Score: 95%
Age rating:
 PG-13
Length: 
123 minutes
Director: 
John Ford

In The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Senator Ransom Stoddard (James Stewart), a man who has become famous for killing a notorious criminal, returns to his hometown for a funeral where he reveals who really shot outlaw Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin) to a local reporter (pieced together by flashbacks). The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance is one of the best westerns of Hollywood’s Golden Age and is widely considered Ford’s greatest work. Shrouded in tension, there’s a meaning behind the movie that isn't as black and white as the movie itself. It’s well worth a watch if you haven’t seen it already.
