Which begs the question, what was the first depiction of Polynesia in film? Let's leave out documentary reels for that, and focus only on a "staged" paradise. I guess to fit within the theme of this thread, the question would be "What is the first depiction of Polynesia in film, as it relates to a HWOF star?" I wonder if that indeed would be Clara Bow? Caltiki Brent would probably know that answer. Silent film is his area of expertise. And also, isn't Theda Bara considered THE "Exotica" girl of the Silent Era?...
