Product Description

It's why the tropics are hot. In the early days of World War II, Marine Sgt. James O'Hearn brawls his way from China to a palm-fringed isle, from barroom to brig, from romance with a beautiful gal to rivalry with a leatherneck pal, and from tough-guy combat to wiseguy comedy in the spirited South Sea Woman. As O'Hearn, screen icon Burt Lancaster flashes his million-dollar grin, flexes his muscular knack for heroics and delivers the kind of tongue-in-cheek adventure that made The Flame and the Arrow and The Crimson Pirate such rousing crowd- pleasers. With his Flame costar Virginia Mayo matching him quip for quip and Chuck Connors matching him fist for fist, Lancaster turns the Pacific into an ocean of action.

VERY ENTERTAINING (!) FUNNY, LOTS OF HUMOR

Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2019

Verified Purchase

SOUTH SEA WOMAN is great entertainment -- the Military Tribunal is the vehicle (if you will) by which the actual 'story line' is told (James O'Hearn, Master Gunnery Sergeant played by Burt Lancaster, is on trial for wartime misdemeanors, all of which are NOT what they appeared to be in court. One witness who is trying desperately to spare him, is showgirl Ginger Martin, played by Virginia Mayo) -- Okay, I don't want to give away all the spoilers here -- but, this 1953 wartime flick is everything it says it is, and more !!! -- Definitely worth the money -- and the time -- make some popcorn with lots of butter, grab a hot cider or soda drink, and sit back for a journey through South Sea adventures involving combat at sea, beautiful island girls not to mention the showgirl testifying in court, plus lots of humorous anecdotes and tongue-in-cheek witness statements - -well, just do yourself a favor -- take my word for it -- you WON'T be disappointed, I'm sure - -

Macho Comedy/Adventure in the Exotic South Pacific

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2018

The oddly-titled "South Sea Woman" ("Sarge O'Hearn" would've been better) is not remembered as one of Burt Lancaster's classic films, but I have always gotten a kick out of it. The story begins at a court martial hearing for Marine Sgt. O'Hearn (Lancaster), who is refusing to testify. Hot blonde Ginger Martin (Virginia Mayo) takes the stand and sets up the story in flash-back, starting in Shanghai, China. O'Hearn goes into a saloon to collar P.F.C. Davey White (Chuck Connors), who has just proposed to Ginger, his "baby." A brawl ensues, and soon the trio are adrift in the East China Sea where they are taken aboard a fishing junk. After more adventures, they wash up on a Vichy France island, where O'Hearn soon is enjoying the pleasures of the local "hotel" and French girls. The plot thickens because Davey only wants to marry Ginger and forget about WW2 which has just broken out, and O'Hearn is determined to get them into it. Opportunity surfaces when a disguised German yacht docks and unloads radar equipment. There is an exciting scene when O'Hearn grabs an MP-40 and massacres the Axis forces who fall into a stream amidst lots of gunsmoke. O'Hearn arms the yacht, gathers the unwilling Davey (with Ginger stowing away), frees the Free French, recruits some expatriate barflies, and sails right into the middle of the Pacific war. The movie returns to the courtroom where the hearing officers are cheering on O'Hearn's exciting deposition like it's a football game. "South Sea Woman" blends comedy, adventure, and patriotic heroism in an entertaining movie. Oddly, the b/w production misses the opportunity for Technicolor that the South Sea story cries out for. Arthur Lubin, the creator of "Francis the Talking Mule" films and "Mr. Ed" on television, directs a talking parrot. Burt is handsome and macho, Virginia is young and delectable, and Chuck is gangly and enthusiastic. Burt even gets knocked out by a swinging mast boom like Curly Howard. Music by David Buttolph loves "The Marines' Hymn." A good movie for guys, but women might like it too, especially when Burt strips off a frilly nightie to reveal his beefcake build. Seriously!

An excellent comedy ...

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is simply a fun movie, ... as only actors of the caliber of Burt Lancaster, Virginia Mayo and Chuck Conners could do. I wish I had looked to see who the woman was that played the French "madame". She was also great. It was also interesting to see Paul Burke as the young, prim naval officer who seemed to be playing the "straight" for practically every other character in the movie. The stilted role seemed to suit him, a type of character he never seemed to evade the rest of his career. I think the movie was well made and met its intended purpose as a comedy, not to be taken too seriously, and I enjoyed it very much.

I enjoyed the movie featuring actors and actresses in early stages of their careers

Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2014

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed the movie, I enjoyed the humor in the movie, and the actors and actresses in the movie. I hadn't seen Chuck Connors in any movie or show older than the T.V. series "the Rifleman", so this was entertaining watching him play in a different role other than as Lucas MCaine in "the Rifleman".

This movie was 'YELPED!' to hype business for this DAWG.

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought this unknown movie (to me) due to various references at other websites. Clunky format,
over acting (per usual with most Lancaster films), etc...I had to stop the movie a few times because
it was so BORING! (When was this going to get better!?) The final battle scene was pretty good; but,
GAWD!

Per usual: I liked Virginia May!

Burt Lancaster is at the top of his game in this movie.
So is Chuck Connors, both Marine who are AWOL.
On a German occupied south seas island.
It's camp and hokey. but for the times it which it was made it was perfect.

It'd been over 40+ years since I had seen this movie, and better now then when I was a kid. Fun to watch and well done for the times.

Torpe guión.

Reviewed in Spain on May 13, 2017

Verified Purchase

A pesar de los excelentes actores, de la buena dirección y de un arranque que promete ofrecernos una comedia disparatada y lúdica sobre la guerra contra Japón, la falta de ideas y de gracia del guión y su brusco giro hacia una exaltación patriótica nada verosímil ni inteligente, hunde el film. Lástima, pues se convierte a intérpretes tan atractivos como lo fueron Burt Lancaster y Virginia Mayo en títeres sin consistencia. Y los pedantes diálogos no logran otra cosa que lastrar las espectaculares secuencias de acción.
