I just had the pleasure of watching this beautiful shot film in letterboxed format on American Movie Classics. Like most films shot in scope (2.35 by 1), the panned and scanned video copy I rented a few years ago didn't do it justice. Nevertheless, "Shout at the Devil" is a wonderfully exciting period adventure laced with spirited humor. Lee Marvin is priceless as Flynn, a dipsomanical Irish poacher/con artist who'll do just about anything for a bottle of gin. Set in Africa during 1913-14, the film chronicles the adventures of Flynn, and an English rogue named Sebastian (Roger Moore), who becomes his partner. What starts out as more of a comedy turns increasingly serious as Flynn and Sebastian run afoul of the Germans, particularly a sadistic, but bumbling German officer named Fleischer. The only flaw: The unexpected murder of a baby seems shockingly out of place in this otherwise breezy adventure. But thanks to entertaining performances (especially Marvin), and Peter Hunt's professional direction, "Shout at the Devil" is highly recommended viewing for all fans of old-fashioned derring-do. If you liked the Indiana Jones movies, give it a chance. Rating: 8 out of 10.
