American Cinematheque Presents: The South Seas Come to Hollywood It's time once again for our annual Tiki celebration! King Kukulele and his Friki Tikis will perform in the Egyptian Courtyard from 5:00 - 7:00 PM along with the Polynesian Paradise Dancers, plus a Tiki fashion show. Vendors include Tikis by Big Mike, Hawaiian Lei Body Products, Tiki Tony Carvings. Polynesian Paradise and Tiki Art by Eric October. You may also purchase BBQ and Polynesian-style cocktails from Maui & Sons Restaurant in the courtyard. At 7:30PM, join us in the theatre for a Tiki clip show featuring Richard Sherman, composer of the Enchanted Tiki Room theme at Disneyland (approx. 60 min., compiled by Denny Moynahan) followed by the feature presentation, 1951's BIRD OF PARADISE. Starring Deborah Paget (Fritz Lang's THE TIGER OF ESCHNAPUR) in all her luscious beauty as Polynesian princess Kalua, opposite Louis Jourdan (GIGI) and Jeff Chandler. Director Delmer Daves (3:10 TO YUMA) creates a wildly entertaining piece of 1950s exotica laden with gorgeous locales (Hawaii doubles for the fictional South Seas island), volcanic danger and charming depictions of daily island life.
