Nine. de Laage is done with
genuine feeling. Jerome Cowan
has a proper WorldlineSS for
Captain Nagle.
AS for Director John Ford, he
has never been more maSterful
in his handling of a big theme
and in his development Of mood.
Even while life is still idyllic
on the island, there are portentS
of the coming doom. Mariana
dreams of the birds all flying
away. The natives speak Of
great winds in years gone by.
The first discord, though, Is
man-made. Terangi is arrested
in Tahiti for striking a white
bully. He is sentenced to six
months in prison, tries to
escape, is sentnced to six more.
His great love Of freedom drives
him to more and more efforts,
with more sentences being piled
up until, in the end he faces
16 years in prison.
Meanwhile, the island has be-
come a place of hate. The ma
tives blame the governor for not
interceding for Terangi. Even
the whites Shun him. Only his
wife and the doctor, occasional
ly when he is drunk, will asso-
ciate with him.
KILLS GUARD
AS the bitterness approaches
a breaking point, Terangi makes
his escape, killing a guard in
doing so. In a prodigiouS feat
of sailing a small boat, he
travels 900 miles from Tahiti to
the island and there is saved by
the priest whose humanity leads
him to protect the boy rather
than turn him over to the ad-
miniStrator.
De Laage gets information,
however, and sets out to capture
the fugitive in the teeth Of a
rising wind that is to become
the hurricane.
James BaSevi. who staged this
storm, has created an unforget-
table bit of movie magic. He
has torn an island apart before
your eSes.

second place to this spectacle OF

The sound effects make the

what is to come. They see the
island, years after the storm,
still barren jut Of sand in the
Pacific.
STORY CUTS BACK
Then the story cuts swiftly
back to the days before the hur-
ricane. The characters take
shape. Terangi, the native hero,
whose soul wings free like q
bird. Mariana, his island sweet
heart. Kersaint, the French doc
tor, filling himself with liquor
but loving and understanding
those simple people. Father
Paul, kind shepherd to his flock
and mellowed philosopher. Eu-
gene de Laage, French admins
traitor of the island, and stern
disciple Of duty. Nine. de Laage,
kind Of heart yet loving her
fanatical husband. Captain
Nagle, South Sea trader. Chief
Mehevi, leader Of the natives.
Hurricane" is not, perhaps,
an actors picture, yet all these
charactes are vividly brought to
life.
Most interest centers around
Jon Hall, the newcomer whom
Goldwyn selected to play the
native hero. Hall is young man
of magnificent physique, OF
more than ordinary good looks
and of promising histrionic
ability. He makes a definite sue
cess Of his first role and will
find himself famous over night.
