Reviews

rrpannone I remember the scene of the elephant crashing through the bamboo wall and falling to its death. I also remember the following: The song in the movie is also called "Beyond the Blue Horizon". Dorothy Lamour had a "pet" tiger. she told Jackra that the tiger would swim in the water with her, which he did not believe. Eventually in the movie, the tiger does swim in a pool with Miss Lamour and Jackra finally believes her. Also, in the movie they called the elephant "the block".Recently I was reminded of this movie while I was watching a TV program called "Raising the Mammoth". In this true story program, they show an expedition that has found a mammoth frozen in the ice and are attempting to dig it out. They referred to the mammoth as "the block". I was wondering if the word "block" refers specifically to a mammoth or other prehistoric elephant/mastodon, etc.

bobbyh214 One of Miss Lamour's last "monkey flicks"...and really one of the best. Richard Denning never looked better. Great music and photography. Just plain good entertainment. It's a shame Paramount does not release this on DVD.

Mr_Scorpio_X I have read the previous comments and would also like to say that I too was very young when I saw this movie. This movie for some reason has had an impact on me,because its a movie that I will never forget as a child. I have made mentioned of this to all that have entered my life and I have made all attempts in trying to see this movie again. Can you believe this? I seen it once when I was like 7 or 8 years old and have been trying to see this again. The most memorable part of this movie that has been embedded in my mind was when they tried to trap this Giant wild elephant from destroying the jungle village. In doing this they made a bamboo wall in front of this cliff and lured the elephant to chase them. Once the elephant did this they use one of those swinging vine that swoop over the cliff while the elephant went crashing through the bamboo wall over the Cliff. For what is was worth, I need to see this again.

kubichan Probably my rating is more sentimental than objective. I saw the movie when I was eleven years old in 1942, having developed a significant crush on Dorothy Lamour from her earlier movie, "The Fleet's In". Still, the movie was highly enjoyable and featured a lovely song entitled "A Full Moon and an Empty Heart" which I still occasionally play on the piano even now. I have never been able to get a recording of this song, nor have I been able to get a copy of the movie on videotape.
