GEORGE NADER - CONGO CROSSING - 1955 - FINAL SCREENPLAY

Here is another of George Nader's Scripts.  It is full of his notes to himself and for the Charactor he portrays.  There are many of them.  A wonderful piece to any collection!   One of George Nader's trademarks was when he finished filming a page of the script, he would fold it in half.  I left them that way rather than unfold them. A lot of the pages might appeared to be wrinkled, they are, and that would be from the constant going over them to memorize lines and action.

Congotanga, West Africa, has no extradition laws; the government is controlled by foreign gangsters, headed by Carl Rittner. The latest plane from Europe carries lovely Louise Whitman, fleeing a French murder charge, and Mannering, who pays resident hit man O'Connell to kill her. Through a chain of circumstances Louise, O'Connell, and heroic surveyor David Carr end up alone in the jungle on Carr's mission to determine the true border of Congotanga... in which Rittner is keenly interested.
