Filmed over a four year span between 1924 and 1927, this rare documentary follows the world-famous explorers, Martin and Osa Johnson, on their second trip to the continent. Their goal: to chronicle the life of the mighty lion (or, in the native tongue, \"simba\".) Primarily filmed while on foot safaris using a tripod, the Johnsons' up close and personal encounters with the wild beasts of Africa still have the power to shock and amaze. In the movie's most memorable sequence, Osa brings down a charging rhinoceros with one well-aimed shot. In addition to its spectacular thrills, Simba is a valuable historical document, capturing the lost cultures of the Boran, Samburu, Turkana and Meru tribes. Martin \u0026amp; Osa would return to the big screen in 1930 with their first sound film, Across the World with Mr. and Mrs. Johnson. This fully-authorized edition of Simba: The King of the Beasts is issued in conjunction with the Martin and Osa Johnson Safari Museum. A bonus postcard is included.INCLUDES BONUS \"ABOUT SIMBA\" RETROSPECTIVE FEATURETTE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"COLOR: #0000ff\"\u003eDVD Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Rated:  NR\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Runtime:  1 hours,  27 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Encoding: Region 1(US \u0026amp; Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Originally Released:  1\/1\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Label:  Alpha Video\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStarring: Martin E.
