User Reviews

The usual french adventure yarn.

A rare film that I comment now. Starring Jean Marais, I don't get why it has not been aired yet on french channels or released in DVD. I got it from the USA and in french language!!!

The tale of a handful of technicians for air mail lines who are surrounded on a removed island - not far from Brazil - by escaped convicts. A sort of "behind locked doors" scheme. The usual stuff, and not so bad after all. But no real surprises either. Sometimes boring, the audiences may find several moments where sleeping feelings occur.

The director gave only a few features for the big screen, and that's the first one I see from him.
