A Good Man in Africa is a 1994 comedy drama film that is based on a 1981 William Boyd novel by the same name. A Good Man in Africa follows a selfish doctor who travels to Africa in order to practice medicine, escape his old life, and rub elbows with embassy officials. The only problem is that the newly arrived doctor is a terrible man who struggles with his own narcissism, philandering, and constant drinking. Things start to change for him when he runs across the famous humanitarian doctor Dr. Alex Murray. Dr. Alex Murray helps to show the man through is constant criticism that he needs to change his way and that there is more to life than being a self-involved drunk. A Good Man in Africa features Colin Friels and Sean Connery. The film was directed by Bruce Beresford.
