Wildlife
advocate Hank (Noel Marshall) takes cat hoarding to a new level,
living in Africa with a hundred or so lions, tigers, leopards, and
other assorted big cats in the one of a kind ROAR.
Given his unusual hobby, is it any surprise Hank is separated from
his wife Madeline (Tippi Hedren, married to Noel in real life at the
time this was made)? As the film begins, Hank is anxiously looking
forward to being reunited with Madeline and the rest of their family
– daughter Melanie (Melanie Griffith) and sons John (John Marshall)
and Jerry (Jerry Marshall).
