What Stanley and Livingstone Is About
When the American newspaperman and adventurer Henry M. Stanley returns from the wars in the west, his editor James Gordon Bennett sends him to Africa to find Dr David Livingstone, the missing Scottish missionary. Stanley finds him and delivers the famous line, and back home nobody believes the story at first. Henry King and Otto Brower made the film in 1939, with Spencer Tracy as Stanley. How it pictures Africans belongs entirely to its own moment, and the wording in our record still carries traces of that language. A viewer today has to hold that frame in mind.
