Review of Bird of Paradise

As a yacht arrives at a tropical island in the Pacific Ocean, they are greeted by inhabitants in canoes. A shark causes panic and, after one of the crew falls into the sea, his life is saved by a native girl. They fall in love but she is already promised to another.

Pre-code film with a good pedigree, directed by King Vidor, music from Max Steiner and choreography by Busby Berkeley. Unfortunately, whilst it has its moments, it now looks dated. Dolores del Rio and Joel McCrea star.
