Typhoon
(a.k.a. "The Big Haircut")

US (1940): Adventure/Romance/Disaster

Dorothy Lamour struts her sarong in eye-popping Technicolor, and Robert Preston gets every man's dream come true when he's rescued by Lamour from an attack by natives as he leads a pearl-diving expedition. She drags him back to her treetop lair on a deserted island, and there they await the gathering storm. All in all, a fair trade-off for enduring a little rain. Louis King directs for Paramount.
