AS A YOUNG WRITER LIVING IN MONTPARNASSE IN PARIS, HARRY IS SHOWN WANDERING AROUND THE BISTROS AND FINALLY, ONE NIGHT, LISTENING TO SOME BLACK MUSICIANS PLAY SOULFUL JAZZ AT A PRIVATE PARTY. HE FINDS CYNTHIA SITTING NEXT TO HIM & WHEN HE LIGHTS HER CIGARETTE SHE SAYS, LOOKING AT A MUSICIAN PLAYING A SAXOPHONE, "HASN'T THAT AFRICAN GOT ANY PIETY?" HARRY, UTTERLY CHARMED BY HER DARK BEAUTY (IT'S AVA GARDNER UH HUH) TELLS HER "WHY DON'T YOU AND I JUST PIETY RIGHT OUT OF HERE?" THEY LEAVE TOGETHER & SOON FALL IN LOVE, CYNTHIA INSPIRING HARRY TO FINISH HIS FIRST NOVEL, WHICH HE CALLS "THE LOST GENERATION" AND ONE IN WHICH SHE IS THE HEROINE. HE SELLS HIS BOOK AND IS DELIGHTED WHEN HE RECEIVES HIS FIRST ADVANCE, TELLING CYNTHIA THAT NOW HE CAN GO TO AFRICA! SHE SMILES WANLY & ACCEPTS HARRY'S AMBITIONS, ALTHO IT IS CLEAR THAT SHE WOULD RATHER SETTLE DOWN & HAVE A FAMILY. IN AFRICA, HARRY IS OBSESSED WITH THE WILD COUNTRY AND WITH HUNTING FIERCE BEASTS, BUT HE STILL LOOKS FOR A REASON IN LIFE, A PURPOSE. CYNTHIA IS THERE ONLY TO PLEASE HIM AND WHEN SHE QUESTIONS THE MEANING IN ALL THE HUNTING, HE CUTS HER OFF, AND REFUSES TO GET IN BETWEEN WHAT HE KNOWS IS AN IMPENDING FAMILY SQUABBLE. ONCE BACK IN NAIROBI, CYNTHIA, WHO HAS HIDDEN THE FACT THAT SHE IS PREGNANT FROM HARRY, REALIZES THAT SHE WILL LOSE HIM IF SHE INSISTS THAT THEY SETTLE DOWN.

AN ATTENDING DOCTOR LEAVES HER ROOM LATER TO TELL A SURPRISED HARRY THAT SHE HAS LOST THE CHILD BUT SHE WILL BE ALL RIGHT. HARRY MUMBLES SOMETHING ABOUT NOT EVEN KNOWING SHE WAS PREGNANT AND THE DOCTOR STARES AT HIM INCREDULOUSLY SAYING "DON'T YOU PEOPLE TALK TO EACH OTHER?"

A LETTER ARRIVES FROM SPAIN ADDRESSED TO HARRY, BUT THE COUNTESS INTERCEPTS IT AND, AT A SMALL GATHERING, SHE ASKS WHO THE LETTER WRITER IS, MENTIONING CYNTHIA'S NAME. HARRY, EAGER TO READ THE LETTER BUT NOT WISHING TO REVEAL HIS TRUE EMOTIONS, TELLS THE COUNTESS THAT THE LETTER IS NOT IMPORTANT. SHE SMUGLY TEARS IT UP AND THROWS IT AWAY AND HARRY EXPLODES, SMASHING HIS DRINK ON THE FLOOR AND GOING TO HIS ROOM TO PACK. AS HE IS PACKING, THE COUNTESS COMES TO HIM, BEGGING HIM TO STAY WITH HER. HE IGNORES HER, GRABBING HIS BAGS & HEADING FOR THE DOOR. SHE TELLS HIM THAT HE LOOKS SO RIDICULOUS - LIKE A KNIGHT QUESTING FOR THE HOLY GRAIL. HE GIVES HER A STERN LOOK AND REPLIES "MAYBE I'LL HAVE A GOOD LOOKSEE FOR THAT GRAIL." HE LEAVES FOR MADRID BUT GETS CAUGHT UP IN THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR, FIGHTING ON THE LOYALIST SIDE. DURING BATTLE, HE SEES AN AMBULANCE HIT BY GUNFIRE & TURNED ON IT'S SIDE. CYNTHIA IS THE DRIVER AND HE PULLS HER FROM THE WRECKAGE, SEEING THAT SHE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED, HOLDING ON TO HER AND CALLING FOR STRETCHER BEARERS TO CARRY HER BACK TO A FIELD HOSPITAL.

KILIMANJARO, ITS CARCASS FROZEN AND NO ONE KNOWING WHAT THE BEAST WAS SEEKING AT THAT ALTITUDE. THE RIDDLE IS SOLVED AT THE END OF THE FILM, ONE WHICH CLEARLY STATES THAT HARRY IS THE LEOPARD AND WHAT HE IS SEEKING IS THE TRUTH OF HIS OWN LIFE AND AMBITIONS, A DANGEROUS TRUTH THAT COMES CLOSE TO KILLING HIM.

Heavy gunfire pierced the night as insurgents fired randomly at US forces using light artillery and small arms. The fighting began Thursday night when American troops sealed off the town in search of several wanted men. By Friday morning, the insurgents had mobilised a counterstrike and a battle raged between the two sides. Numerous civilians were caught in the crossfire, forcing may to flee the town. Several of those who remained were wounded in the battle. The local hospital in the neighbouring town of Baqouba was crowded with injured civilians, including women and children. Military officials said seven insurgents had been killed in the two days of skirmishes. But officials at Baqouba General Hospital said five people had died and 15 were injured.
