French soldier-of-fortune Louis Jourdan journeys to Polynesia alongside his college chum, native chieftain's son Jeff Chandler, and finds himself taken with the beautiful sights...particularly his friend's sister, Debra Paget. Can their mutual attraction weather the cultural divide or the locals' notion of how to appease an active volcano? Handsome version of the Richard Walton Tully play co-stars Everett Sloane, Jack Elam; Delmer Daves directs. 100 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
