Pearl of the South Pacific (1955)
'Pearl' Cam
By Jeffrey M. Anderson
An unusual South Seas adventure, Pearl of the South Pacific (1955) tells the old tale of white men invading a peaceful island looking for ancient treasure. Virginia Mayo is the only one who eventually sees the error of her ways, but other, greedier invaders die at the tentacles of a great low-budget octopus. Allan Dwan directs, one of three movies he made that year. John Alton's color cinematography feels fresh and robust.
