Oh my Lord, this just gets better and better.

Here I was with a Peace Corps buddy drinking in a bar in Cape Coast ( the town where the movie was filmed), no wonder I was PO’d. Great-crested grebe? Really? In GHANA? Then the guy goes to friggin STORM PETRELS? grin

So I brung him back on track by going to Cisticolas, them little green birds 😎 About the only time in a movie where they actually got a bird right.



I have no idea why they didn’t use Ghanaians for the heavies and not just for the extras, the whole friggin’ country speaks English.
