Aloha and thanks for your comments. Nick was very generous as far as text was concerned. Keep in mind that I am not a writer. After doing a more in depth review, I read it back and was a bit bored with it. I thought it would be better to keep the review brief (to entice you to view the movie on your own) and add photos to keep it more interesting. I prefer the combination of the two. JonPaul agreed and I think it came out better than I expected. Most of these South Seas movies were done as "B" pictures and would not win any awards (except Aloma Of The South Seas which was nominated for an Oscar for Cinematography and won for Special Effects!) There may be awards for other movies but nothing that I am aware of for Acting or Screenplay. I hope to continue the article and your positive comments may ensure that it does. Jeff...I only have the 16mm trailer for Bora Bora and am waiting for some cash to get it transferred. Would love to find a copy of the film. I am always looking for rare South Seas movies so if anyone has a lead on something interesting send me a PM. |
