Outcast of the Islands

Sacked from a Singapore shipper when his underhanded dealings catch up with him, Peter Willems (Trevor Howard) begs old mentor Capt. Tom Lingard (Ralph Richardson) for passage up the Indonesia coast and another chance. Receiving a position with Lingard’s son-in-law (Robert Morley), Willems wastes little time in betraying them both--and seducing a local chieftain’s daughter (Kerima) to boot. Carol Reed’s atmospheric take on the Joseph Conrad novel co-stars Wendy Hiller, George Coulouris. 93 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailers.
