This picture, which repeats the suc cess of his memorable "Male and Female" of neveral years ago, in une of the most colourful plecen of screen entertainment that it has been our pleasure to see for many Against a background of the most amazing Jungle scenery ever brought to the screen, the story details the adventures of four highly cultured people, two women and two men, whe are forced .cacape from a Dutch steamer when bubonic plague breaks out. Lost for months in Malay Jungle, they turn to primitive man- ners and habits. The transformation of a prim little school teacher into n beautiful Jungle creature over whom the men light provides nome highly novei situations. This latter role played by Cinudette Colbert is the inost outstanding achievenient of her career and more than justifies her clevation to stardom. Herbert Mar- shall and Williams Gargan, in

cun- trasting roles, enhance the story with finely drawn portrayals.
