Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2012 20:18:35 +0000 From: Armstrong,Helenjane <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps, Air Photo, GIS Forum - Map Librarianship <[log in to unmask]> Per the Movie of mapping Africa: There is a 1956 movie titled Congo Crossing which sounds like a candidate but it is in color and the description only mentions the true border and not a river or mine. although the mine might be the feature in which Rittner is keenly interested. Sorry I only barely remember the movie and only about the land survey and little about a map. Wikipedia describes the plot as: "Congotanga, West Africa, has no extradition laws; the government is controlled by foreign gangsters, headed by Carl Rittner (Tonio Selwart). The latest plane from Europe carries Louise Whitman (Virginia Mayo), (fleeing a French murder charge), and Mannering (Raymond Bailey), who pays resident hit man O'Connell (Michael Pate) to kill her. Through a chain of circumstances Louise, O'Connell, and heroic surveyor David Carr (George Nader) end up alone in the jungle on Carr's mission to determine the true border of Congotanga... in which Rittner is keenly interested.
