Comment
An innocent young woman in England meets are married a rich plantation owner and moves to his family home in Ceylon. Onc there she realises that she is the only white woman on the plantation which is still dominated by his dead father who built the house across the route the elephnats use to reach water. As she tries to come to terms with some irrational behaviour of her husband and the all pervading influence of his dead father she is attracted to the American plantation foreman as a way out. It does start quite slow but buils up the emotion to the final action sequence. Liz Taylor is attractive in her various dresses that is only out done by the handlebar moustash of Abraham Sofaer.
