bkoganbing Even for a World War II propaganda film Monogram Studios hit rock bottom with this film about two agents trying to stop a Japanese takeover of an island where the Vichy French government still has control.Although both Waikiki Wedding from Paramount and Song Of The Islands, films set in the Pacific islands never got beyond the studio lot, both films today create an illusion. That's the difference between major studios and these Poverty Row outfits like Monogram.And getting into the film itself, our intrepid agents are Robert Lowery and Guinn Williams. You know it's got to be bad when FBI agent Lowery gets as a partner the only sailor in Uncle Sam's Navy who can't swim. He's not much good at anything else. Oh well, the other side has Warren Hymer so it's a pair of Rhodes Scholars up against each other. A couple of Polynesian girls Margie Hart and Gale Storm have some musical Hawaiian flavored numbers. But Hart is one of the worst actresses going. Good thing she married well into society.This one's a real Thanksgiving feast, compliments of Monogram Pictures.

martex34 Margie Hart was Margaret Hart Ferraro, a former burlesque dancer that, according to wire stories, was called "the poor man's Garbo"; went on to become a savvy real estate investor, political wife and society matron, who died Jan 26, 2000 in Los Angeles; age was estimated at 84 years. Not bad!

Lots of fun burlesque-style dialogue. Kind of a '40's "Gilligan's Island," but with sexual tension. Gale Storm, adorable... "Hawaiian" music and dancing.
