(1954) Ricardo Montalban, Ariadna Welter, Víctor Parra, Miguel Inclán. In this forgotten Euro-adventure thriller, Montalban plays a scientist sent into the jungle wilds near Veracruz seeking barbasco roots for cortisone production. He gets lost in the jungle, though, and is thrown into a strange romantic adventure in a remote village known as “Paradise.” A real rarity, this big, sprawling film has some amazing scenes involving waterfalls. Great performances by all. The final “goodbye” sequence is quite memorable and even a little tear-jerking. Cool.
