Basie (1961)
28 Aug 1961 • Comedy • 1h 19m
Gordon Vorster returns to familiar territory - 'Basie' is similar in many respects to his earlier film 'Die Vlugteling' (1960). This time around a young Ducktail* unwittingly kidnaps a young bride and then falls in love with her. *Ducktails: "a white youth gang subculture which emerged within post Second World War South Africa. Rebellious, hedonistic, apolitical and showing little respect for the law, education or work"
