A debt-ridden fashion designer and her disinherited beau embark for South America, but end up shipwrecked on a tropical island inhabited by savages. “Paramount’s biggest stars were in the cast, the producer was Ernst Lubitsch and we became great friends. He helped me a lot and I love his pictures.” (McCarey) (Locarno Festival)
