As with other movies starring Bogart, there's plenty of smoking (cigars) and drinking (gin). Immediately, several African villagers run to and scuffle over who gets the cigar butt. Bogart's character is a steamboat captain, and Hepburn's character is a missionary - both make references to the Africans who assist them as "my boys." An early scene in which Bogart's character first arrives at the African village involves Bogart's character, Charlie, tossing a cigar onto the ground. As a movie set in Africa during World War I, the depictions of Africans are indicative of the stereotypes of the time. Parents need to know that The African Queen is a classic 1951 romantic comedy/adventure starring Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn. Charlie tosses his cigar to the ground upon arriving in the African village, and the African villagers rush over and scuffle over who gets the cigar butt.ĭid you know you can flag iffy content?

Rose disapproves of alcohol, sending his stash into the river while Charlie is in hangover agony. Charlie talks of how he used to sleep off hangovers on typical Sunday afternoons. Charlie smokes cigars and drinks gin, finally to the point of drunkenness, where he sings off-key and is surly and rude to Rose.
