Just to respond to ccthemoviemans comment about Jon Hall being another Caucasian actor trying to pass himself off as a dark-skinned native. Although at a quick glance that may seem to be the case, in reality nothing could be further from the truth. My uncle worked with Mr. Hall back in the early 1950's. And having Jon Hall play this part was not really a backwards idea because although his features tended to favor his father, he was actually the son of a Tahitian mother. It's been said that he was descended from Tahitian royalty, as his mother was a Tahitian princess. In the islands he would be referred to as a "Hapa-Haole". A term describing someone who is half Caucasian and half Polynesian or Asian. Also worth noting, is that the movie "Hurricane" was adapted from a book written by Jon Halls uncle.
