Blue Hawaii (1961) Starring: Elvis Presley, Joan BlackmanDirector: Norman Taurog Rating
Elvis Presley's seventh film was the first of his "Hawaii trilogy" (including Girls! Girls! Girls! and Paradise, Hawaiian Style). While its story is daft--the King has just been released from his Army posting in Italy and returned to the islands, where he's trying to avoid working in his father's fruit business--the music is not: "Blue Hawaii," "Almost Always True," and the beautiful "Can't Help Falling in Love." Angela Lansbury plays Elvis's mother, who can't seem to get through to him. Directed by the star's frequent collaborator, Norman Taurog (G.I. Blues). --Tom Keog

Molokai: The Story Of Father Damien  Starring: David Wenham, Kate Ceberano Director: Paul Cox Rating
This biography of Father Damien, the Catholic priest who in 1873 volunteered for service on the eponymous Hawaiian leper colony, doesn't hesitate to idolize its subject, and why should it? For 15 years Damien ministered almost single-handedly to the quarantined community, supplying what medication he could procure while struggling against the red tape from organizations (religious and governmental) that would rather have forgotten all about the hundreds of people slowly dying in primitive conditions. He won some battles and lost others, finally succumbing to the disease himself in 1888. The film can't overcome the inherent weaknesses of projects such as this: high officials given to improbable speeches recapping the relevant historical events for us, a certain formlessness generated by skipping through the years and only hitting the high points, stock bureaucratic villains whose motives are never fairly explored. On the other hand, screenwriter John Briley has an Oscar on his shelf for Gandhi, so he knows how to string the lessons together and make them go down smoothly.

The earnestness of the project no doubt led to the who's-who supporting cast (Sam Neill, Derek Jacobi, Peter O'Toole, Leo McKern) (oh yes, and Kris Kristofferson), but it is David Wenham who must carry the film as Damien, which he does well enough--not spectacularly but with a touching humility not above a tetchy self-righteousness. Director Paul Cox was an inspired choice, however, bringing to the project his patient fascination with emotions at their most subtle and restrained; as a result, Molokai's low-key sense of conflict, often a fatal flaw in similar movies, becomes the film's saving grace, a manifestation of its subject's quiet, persistent faith. --Bruce Reid

Kon Tiki Director: Thor HeyerdahlRating
This is the classic Academy-Award winning documentary film of an astonishing adventure, a
journey spanning 4,300 nautical miles across the Pacific Ocean by raft. Intrigued by Polynesian
folklore, Norwegian biologist Thor Heyerdahl suspected that the South Sea Islands had
been settled by an ancient race from thousands of miles to the east, led by the mythical hero
Kon-Tiki. Heyerdahl knew that the trade winds and ocean currents off the South-American
coastline bear in the direction of Polynesia. Ridiculed by the scientific establishment, who
had concluded that a voyage by aboriginal balsa raft from Peru to Polynesia was impossible, he decided
to prove the possibility of his theory by duplicating the legendary voyage. The ensuing expedition was
hailed as one of the most fantastic feats of daring and courage of its time.

On April 28, 1947, Heyerdahl and his five crew members embarked from Peru on their daring voyage
to the Marquesas Islands, on a balsa wood raft which was built according to the traditions of South
America's pre-Columbian Indians. After 101 suspenseful days on the open sea, alone amid raging storms,
whales, and countless sharks, they landed on the Polynesian island of Raroia.

The expedition attracted worldwide interest. Heyerdahl's book Kon-Tiki was translated into 67 languages,
and sold more than 20 million copies. Heyerdahl had been presented with a film camera before the journey
began, and both the building of the raft and the voyage across the Pacific were filmed in detail. In 1952,
his fascinating black and white film was awarded an Oscar for the most outstanding documentary.
The film subsequently enthralled cinema-goers all over the world. The raft is now exhibited at the
Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo, Norway, where it is seen by hundreds of thousands of tourists every year.
