    • Goofs
      The "natives" were the wrong color.
    • Quotes

      Fidel: I sent you 20 good men.

      Vargo: Men? 20 miserable savages, hardly able to carry themselves, let alone a load of ivory.

    Great Jane

    Joyce MacKenzie is a stunning, sexy, strong Jane (she is a handful for two men who try to kidnap her). Raymond Burr makes a good villain. These two steal the movie from the She-Devil of the title (who doesn't do much that's devilish), and Tarzan himself (who doesn't do much of anything). The story (about ivory hunters) is nothing special, but the film does climax, appropriately, with an elephant stampede. ** out of 4.
