I wanted to respond to you seriously, but a gruff voice in my head kept repeating, "Madam, your jungle is naked." Crumb to think of it, that could be the name of a stag film from 1914 -- you know, the shameless indecent sort that shows people's bare knees.
Watched Sergio Martino's All the Colors of the Dark the other night. The opening was relentlessly grotesque and experimental -- amazing, that you could make such a film in Italy in 1972 and have it released commercially in theaters worldwide. O for the elegance of earlier days.
Edit: Thanks tons for the Veronica Lake clip, Mr. 'H.', -- clearly, you're a stand-up gentleman. Here's hoping your last initial will become a real letter very soon and not just a questionable character enclosed in quotes. That way, it can avoid years of psychotherapy due to False Abbreviation Syndrome.
(Just Joshing, of course, since the quotes make the pseudonym vintage. Quite like the effect.)

A.R. McVintage said:The Naked Jungle, a 1954 Charlton Heston film about a gruff cocoa plantation owner and his mail-order wife from New Orleans and their native employees who together fend off the "marabunta," a swarm of giant soldier ants 20 miles long and 2 miles wide in the heart of Peru.
