Clark Gable's breakthrough role was in "The Maltese Falcon," which he co-starred with the sexy actress Jean Harlow just as he was starting out. Twenty years later, he reprised the same role, with the leading ladies now being the passionate Ava Gardner and the aloof Grace Kelly. This remake shifts the story setting from the rubber plantations of Southeast Asia to the African continent, depicting explorer Vito falling in love with the dancer Elos, and their romance quickly heats up. However, when anthropologist Donald appears with his wife Linda, Vito shifts his romantic focus to Linda, leading to an irreparable triangular tragedy. This film is not director John Ford's representative work, but he handles this flavorful love triangle story with vigor, full of drama, and arranges plenty of fierce hunting action and natural scenery to highlight the love conflict, which works well.
