Peck is a neurotic, suicidal pilot in Burma during WWII. He's transformed by his love for a native girl, which gives him the drive to survive the trek through the harsh burmese wilderness after his plane crashes.
A good,dramatic film with serviceable performances by the cast. Especially by Brenda De Banzie as a missionary.
