You’ll enjoy it! Simple adventure....but not a kiddy movie.

Thanks! I love these little “unknown” gems. Another favorite is “Goodbye My Lady” about a boy (Brandon DeWilde from “Shane” who lives with his uncle Walter Brennan, and finds a lost basenji dog in the swamps.

It's a classic “coming of age” movie where a boy is suddenly and confusingly orphaned in an air raid during the Suez crisis. He has to E&E overland from Egypt to South Africa, learns to be a man, hangs out with poachers and smugglers and mercenaries as I recall. Great stuff. Terrific movie for young Scouting age boys to see.
