In a Savage Land (1999)

My Rating

Movie Info

Australian director Bill Bennett sets this exploration of sexual politics and cultural differences against the stunning vistas of the Trobriand Islands. In it, two anthropologists travel to a remote island in the South Pacific to study its culture in the 1930s. Evelyn (Maya Stange) is an adventurous free thinker, while her husband Phillip (Martin Donovan) is a rigid scholar bound to convention and propriety. Tension develops between the couple when Phillip fails to acknowledge what Evelyn sees

I actually love this film, its wonderfully paced and the actors are amazing. I only wish I could get it on dvd in Australia...it needs more attention, as does Rufus Sewell.
