The Gods must be Crazy I
This story tells about A Sho, who meet in the Kalahari desert for the first time in the form of a bottle of Coca-Cola falling from the sky. The man decided to return it to his people and use it in many of the tasks they needed.

It's not hard to understand why the film was such a worldwide sensation...

A funny comedy, done is slapstick style, about a single but origianl idea of how a bottle of Coke changes the entire lifestle of a tribe.

There's Uys' penchant for very broad Jerry Lewis-like slapstick, and your enjoyment of that depends entirely on your penchant for said slapstick.

There's an earnest sincerity to the messages offered within, plus the presentation is colorful and exotic and quite funny throughout.

Sleeper that became a huge hit; all about the discovery of a soft drink container by a bushman. Funny, fascinating.

You'd have to be crazy not to be charmed by this movie - grab a coke and a smile.

The comedy has a Keystone Cops feel and the film is also occasionally touching. These kinds of silly movies just aren't made anymore and that's too bad.

Whimsical mix of African folk tale and slapstick comedy
