The Snows of Kilimanjaro based on the stories of Ernest Hemingway. It tells the tale of a writer and adventurer Harry Street (played by Gregory Peck) who is seriously injured and in delirium at the foot of one of Africa’s highest peak Kilimanjaro. His wife Helen played by Susan Hayward tended to his wounds. He began to recollect the love of his life Cynthia Green played by Ava Gardner which was the holy grail in his life, his second wife Countess Liz played by Hildegard Knef, he also thought that he had compromised his talents. His wife try to keep him alive and to keep his spirits up till help arrived…and maybe she will be his last chance for love and happiness….

One riddle that was something left by his uncle is
Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa. Its western summit is called the Masai ‘Ngaje Ngai,’ the House of God. Close to the western summit there is the dried and frozen carcass of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that altitude.
Harry Street supposedly have found the answer and that was why he went to Kilimanjaro….

Good acting by Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner.
