User Review - 10/10 by Pinar TLoved it!!! It is beautiful, interesting and impressive. Hope I can find it on dvd or something. Would love to watch again
User Review - 8/10 by Adele TI liked this movie. It's a fascinating (and surprisingly rather un-PC) look at life and race relations in what was still colonial times. The white anthropologists are in New Guinea to study a local native tribe and the whole portrayal of the whites on the island is how you would expect colonial whites to have really behaved. It's set at the outbreak of WW2, and there's no cultural egalitarianism in this movie. There's romance, conflict, a dose of feminism, and eventually the Japanese invade the island and the whites flee.

User Review - 6/10 by Stefanie Cthe setting is evocative of a paul bowles or w. somerset maughm story. perfect role for rufus sewell. i am a fan of martin donovan, but he isn't very charming in this role.
