Mogambo

A big-game hunter running a safari outpost in Kenya finds himself caught between a brash showgirl and the refined wife of a visiting anthropologist. (Wikipedia) Directed by John Ford, the film stars Clark Gable as Victor Marswell, with Ava Gardner and Grace Kelly as the two women drawn into his orbit; it was released by MGM in October 1953, a loose remake of the 1932 pre-Code drama Red Dust, which had also starred Gable. Kelly's performance earned her first Academy Award nomination.
