Cornell Wilde more beefcake than Ty Powers,Macready more menacing than Sanders (both George's claimed fame as top villains).Great to see Frances Farmer in a role later played by the great Anne Bancroft,a wonderful actress.She was more ruthless when she betrayed Jean-Paul and defying her father when he reported how they were to be tossed out of the manor due to the Marquis' treachery.This explained in Son Of Fury that Edward had killed his brother and his wife,but not included in Son Of Fury to maintain suspense.Much of the dialogue is same in both films,but prefer Guatemala to Tahiti,especially since "white men not allowed to marry Polynesian women" rule within studio system.Well,love finds a way.The final fight more brutal in Son Of Fury,but you don't want to seriously hurt your stars.Maybe Macready had some gymnastic skills,as his grandson is a gymnast from 1996 team.If George did his own tumbling,he's pretty good,especially since he got drop from a stage harness hoisting him skyward which broke and he managed to be unharmed.
