South Pacific

1958 · 157 min Music Romance War
6.1 / 10 · TMDB

Can a girl from Little Rock find happiness with a mature French planter she got to know one enchanted evening away from the military hospital where she is a nurse? Or should she just wash that man out of her hair? Bloody Mary is the philosopher of the island and it's hard to believe she could be the mother of Liat who has captured the heart of Lt. Joseph Cable USMC. While waiting for action in the war in the South Pacific, sailors and nurses put on a musical comedy show. The war gets closer and the saga of Nellie Forbush and Emile de Becque becomes serious drama.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This is cinema with character. It doesn't try to please everyone at once — it has its own position, its own intonation.

The film is honest with its audience. Doesn't promise more than it delivers — and that itself has value.

For those who find pleasure in details, not just in plot turns.

Director: Joshua Logan

Viewing atmosphere: With someone close, when there's time and mood. Not as background — it asks for attention.
