I’m only here for Dorothy Dandridge 💅🏽🎀✨
SAME!
Me, too!
She was a gem
Stunning woman with spice.
Really? Her acting was rather wooden and Joan Fontaine was prettier
Dorothy Dandridge is absolutely stunning!
Next level stunning. A league all her own.
Wcale nie jest
I love the fact that she and John Justin have their own theme song. Every time they appear on screen, the song "Again" is played in the background
How stunning is Dorothy Dandridge! ✌🏻
I think Elizabeth Taylor modeled herself after Dorothy...
Dorothy Dandridge was gorgeous in this movie.
Wcale nie jest piękna,zupełnie przeciętna
How can you hate a people so much who have done you nothing, I can’t understand this sickness of some people.
When a people are superior in body, mind and spirit they are hated for no reason for the haters feel less of themselves
That explains slaves in America better.
The men's fashion was lit,reminds me of my father's tropical suits,and liesure wear,absolute classics. Panama hats, pleated trousers with turn up cuffs and tropical shoes,fantastic
Did anyone notice that the first few minutes up until about 2:07 have no audio, there is a glitch?
Yes, I did
I think so it doesn't get taken down.
this is a lovely film. i found it intriguing harry belafonte's life was very centered in his black experience. yet, it doesnt appear he partnered in marriage to black women and none of his grandchildren are black. his life seems to be mimic what became of the Fleury family in this story.
Fleury..
The name boldly stenciled on a building caught my attention too. Slave owners...no doubt.
Can't lie, James Mason acts the tormented soul like no one else.
The costumes in this film are exquisite, beautiful and elegant.😍
Fun fact: Dorothy Dandridge was part Jamaican 🇯🇲💕
…I met my wonderful husband in Barbados…I am German and he was American…two people who were destined to be together…..we loved each other for 30 years….i will love him until my time comes….i love The Caribbean!
Well this isn't Barbados..it's beautiful grenada 🇬🇩
This is the film that Harry and Joan got it on off camera. Good on him... she was a real looker.
She spoke about it in an interview
This was one of the most progressive movie made, and controversial also. Harry Belafonte did not want to have physical contact with Joan Fontaine, even though she was willing to go that route. He talked about it one time on a talk show
Joan wanted to go all the way with him...lol
"What would you say the most important problem on the Island is?"
"Color, Mr Bradshaw," says our Harry Belafonte coolly, "Color."
In my long life I've heard of this movie but had not seen it. I am positively blown away by the story and the script.
That this once was Hollywood is beyond belief, even if it is unique. Incredible that it was made, and with such luminaries.
The very last scene is especially moving and vital. And, as she says, I am wrong and you are right.
Mr Belafonte is magnificent and beautiful in every way.
Maxwell, (James Mason) - "instead u send me to school here wid coloured pratts". Many things are learned from movies. It creates and maintains past, present and future. So difficult to escape mental conditioning.
Belafonte and Dandridge were an Impeccable team in the Classic "Porgy and Bess"💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Belafonte was not in the film " "Porgy and Bess".
Ah, the days when we carried cigarettes in boxes and had silver lighters …
There was a rich language at that time. They made suspect from the difference between words After and Afterwards.
Today dialogs in movies are like:
OK. Are you OK?
Yes, I'm OK.
OK.
And I'm not exaggerating, herd it in the recent movie.
😂
It made sense. He was basically confessing right there. I don't see why it wouldn't be used in current thinking.
Where is the sound???!!!!?????
A very good watch, especially on a Sunday rai Y afternoon. Brings back so many memories for me as a child on my paradise of St Lucia.
I once knew a young lust just like Dorothy Dandridge. Unfortunately, many others knew her also and I was no Harry Belafonte'. My mother, now 83 years young was once in love with Harry. Very easy to see why.
Promotion of cigarettes must have been at its peak back then.
Harry Belafonta was a great actor and was very handsome
@@roseoreillysievers6057 indeed he was. As "hansom" as Ali (the Greatest) and me.
excited to see this not going to read any comments until it is over!
What a fantasy world versus reality lol .. fabulous fashion!
Mr Mason still with a touch of welsh in his accent not long before his english became impeccable.
Why would he ever want to lose a Welsh accent.?? I certainly would not want to lose my Scottish one, and after 66 years I have not.
@@annabellamarston448 Mr Mason is a professional actor.
I know who and what he is I saw one of his first movies in 1945-6 .. The Seventh Veil, I have also lived in the Islands for 65 years and know all the hints of UK accents which make up the distinctive iaccents of each island
All about Sex and jealousy. Nothing changed even today.
Its good to be frank Frank
Great movie. I am French and from the french west indies Island Martinique. I have seen this movie countless time and sure can relate to this story.
You are not French !! You are a Martiniquais still under the control of France … connais toi même et Tu connaitras … 🎉
Filmed in Barbados.
Barbados and Grenada
What a movie so many BIG stars.👏👏👏
This type of palpable bigotry still exists
What a beautiful movie! They don't make them like that any more.
Ok james mason the one & only - a really good actor r in Micheal Rennie

Pilus Harry & Dorothy
Wow - what a treat

Beautiful Movie 😊
Wow amazingly crafted , throughly scripted , well performed and entertaining classic with beautiful cultural

I have the movie on D.V.D. with commentary, but it's much easier to watch it on RUclips. I only watch the scenes with Dorothy Dandridge in them. In an interview which can be seen on RUclips, she said she wanted her next role after "Carmen Jones" to be as far away from "CARMEN as possible. She got what she wanted. The very elegant Margo Seaton is the complete opposite of Carmen. It's hard to believe it's the same actress. That's what acting is all about.
I wonder if you can turn off the commentators. Some movies have that option but you have to choose it from the menu.
@@christienelson1437 To answer your question yes. From the menu, I can select with or without commentary.
@@1234pouvez Which character is this Dorothy Dandridge? I am not familiar with any of the actors, except Harry bellafonte.
@@juniorh9238 Dorothy Dandridge is the actress who was nominated for an Oscar for Carmen Jones as Best Actress. In this movie, she portrays Margo Seaton the lady who is with Harry Bellafonte in their first scene when they enter the outdoor party together.
@@1234pouvez Thanks or the info.
Released June 1957 20th Century Fox
Filming Locations: Granada; Trinidad, Barbados
Based on the novel Island in the Sun by Alec Waugh (New York, 1955)
Contains one of the first interracial kisses in American cinema. Banned in Alabama as Communist propaganda.
Grenada
GRENADA
Granada is in spain
Tanks
Alec Waugh was a lovely guy.
GRENADA not Granada. Granada is in Spain. I once visited the Alhambra Castle in Granada Spain. There is no interracial kiss in this movie.
I remember Michael Rennie as a nice guy in the movies
Great movie! Didn't see the mix couples kiss at all. I'm sure they weren't going for in it those days. Thank you for posting this.
Thank heavens for that
When proper COLOR entered ! The cinematographers must have smiled unto tears with this new tech!
"Who the Devil are you?" - Hmm.
Yay! Sound came back. Its so sad that "Charity" is such an issue, even to this day. Charity is part of what Padre God teaches. Bless those that accept, for they put aside their misplaced pride for the Blessings received & to those providing the Charity. Peace be with us all 🙏. "Isa"
Belafonte and D.D. are with watching
Very Nice Movie !
all about class races and the colour of the skin this will never change the human race history repeats it self , a never ending cycle
They never stop smoking, its crazy
It was considered glamorous back then. I probably would have smoked to if I hadn't grown up with smoke circling my head. Then I married into smoke.
Thank you❤
Dame Joan Collins a true sensual impeccable beauty right down to her body language 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
We lived in American Samoa in 1972 to 1976, and the natives would climb the cocoa trees and and have coconut milk and pick the bananas. This move reminds me of living on an Island
There is a lady in this film she is going to be 102 in May.
At Frame 21.57 she comes out of the store in the yellow dress to speak to the man in the car
@@lisamcdonald4215how do you know all this?

POSSESSION-LESSENING THE ESSENCE OF A TRUE CON FESSION
Everyone is smoking in the movie 😮
Sadly, that was the way it was. I remember the commercials of "Marlboro", "Camel" & other popular cig brands. I'm so grateful that has ended. Peace be with us all 🙏. "Isa"
I guess they all died from lung cancer 🤨😖
I seen worse!
Lol tells the stress level or was it part of the script?
@@qwemnamtempleofafrikanspir9014 back in the 50s/60s lots of heavy cigarette smoking in most drama movies.
There is no sound😢
I had to fast forward about 3 minutes
Patricia Owens had an interesting movie career . She played the lust object of deranged James Mason in this movie . She played a fiancé of Brando who was dumped for the exotic Taka in Sayonara. She was dutiful wife in her most famous role in The Fly . She played in the movie X-15 with a young Mary Tyler Moore as one of the fearful wives waiting for the crash .
so as person of Caribbean descent I find these american movies weird. Because the islands are very mixed race. so its not unusual to have interacial relationships, marriage and offspring. So I dont get hesitation, it doesnt really seem historically accurate. my great grandma was german, getting her swirl on in like 1930. I think there is more tension between whites, the mixed race & elite blacks, merchant class asian and the poorer persons left behind by the slave trade. also why do they not have accents, like a transatlantic accent here makes absolutely no sense.
Well of course this movie was filmed in 1956 and released in 1957. If the film were made today Margo Seaton, who lived in the islands all her life would not have an American accent. It's not a biographical movie. None of the movie makes any sense. Margo Seaton had no reason to worry about being invited to an outdoor party, where anybody could wander in. Besides David Boyer was an invited guest. He would be expected to bring a lady friend with him. Joan Fontaine was ten years older than Harry Belafonte, but that didn't seem to be an issue. Race was the only issue. In 1956 I don't think the residents of the island would have been so poor and uneducated that they would wash their clothes in the ocean. They should have had homes in which to wash their clothes. It's pure fiction based on the fictional novel of the same name written by Alec Waugh who was British, about a fictional island. I believe it was filmed in Barbados. In 1956 the Prime Minister of Barbados was Sir Grantley Herbert Adams a person of color as we say today, not David Boyer the great savior who had to show his poor un-educated people how to use their vote. They didn't have the intelligence to think for themselves. His people had the power to vote when the movie began. Being the majority of the island they should have had a Prime Minister of color and control of the island. Interracial couples don't mention race because it's not an issue for them. If it was they wouldn't be in the relationship. My only interest in the film was Dorothy Dandridge.
There are lots of people of Caribbean descent in America, especially in Florida, Louisiana, and New York. Miscegenation is a thing here as well so there’s innumerable mixed people.
Colorism is a big problem in the islands. It rivals racism in America.
I don’t know what they don’t have accents.
Genesis 15:12-14 & Deuteronomy chapter 28
They hit you with the copyright for that opening music?
Darn, darn. No sound at all, no matter what I try. I hope it comes back again on another Channel. 😢 "Isa"
never have preconceptions my boy, OPEN MIND, that's the thing...
Mrs. Devau is the matron of our hospital...
for 300 years there has been marriage & intermarriage with nobody sure of their precise ancestry, but a veil of secrecy, whispers and innuendo has been drawn across this problem. 56:50
Standard Hollywood movies would have introduced the stars ie Dandridge and Belefonte way before.
Much racial tension and aggression!
you know I saw a film the other day about a little town in New England, that's where I would like to live. the characters in the house had a wonderful kitchen with all sorts of gadgets, with a kitchen like that you don't need servants. THATS HOW I WOULD LIKE TO LIVE... ( automation and machinery coupled with Artifical intelligence and the Internet of Things will make it easier to get things done and the cost liability of paying humans will go down, savings are passed to the consumer... why have a maid when you have a vacuum cleaner , dishwasher, washing machine and wifi? there is a reason some folks are sacred of automation and dont want development, it will render culture & tradition useless.
The fractions of african ancestry mentioned are incorrect. Julian Fleury says he has one sixteenth african ancestry, but if his mother had a quarter, then Julian would have an eighth and Maxwell would be the one with one sixteenth.
AFTERWARD INSTEAD OF AFTER
Julian Fleury was brought up in England a distinguished Wessex family 35 years ago when he proposed marriage to their youngest daughter, Presumably, they didn't know that Julian Fleury's mother who died in childbirth was a Jamaican with colored ancestry, is it true? yes, it's true...
I will do my best I want to say to him, I'm not out to punish him, I'm not out to punish anybody, it's just that I have got to maintain Law & Order. The sentence might get remitted for good behavior...
Policy could give a damn about crime.
one of the most important fights is against tradition, this Island is shackled with traditions. 13:26 (Amojong issues in the Teso context) ... that was Charity Mr. Flurry what we want is Equality good point Mr. Harry Belafonte
It's just the begging of the movie and oh that
David is just so sexy ❤️
whats his name? who? the Governors son
Joan Collins as the supposed mulatto sister and Patricia Owens as the wife of James Mason should have switched roles . Collins would be more believable as the object of lust for the sick Mason character .
I think it is the temptation of the element of taboo at time period. The rich would have numerous opportunities from a variety of sources and find the everyday connections boring. Fear from racial retaliation in small communities would have discouraged many people from such relationships. She would have been forbidden. But I agree Joan sizzled in this movie and made his choice hard to believe.
@JJJBRICE - I agree but for different reasons. When the mother confesses that her husband is not Collins' father and that the Collins character has "pure white blood," Joan's naturally tawny shading has a suspiciously mulatto quality which belies the script. Patricia Owens was quite obviously "pure white" and would have been better in the role. And Joan Fontaine was completely miscast as Harry Belafonte's love object. Belafonte and Dorothy Dandridge were closer in age, comparable in physical attractiveness, and had on-screen chemistry. Fontaine was ten years older than Belafonte and could never have persuaded anyone, especially the natives, that handsome Harry was interested in her. "B" movie with an all-star cast still doesn't make it a great film. Mediocre and predictable, relying too heavily on box office names rather than good writing and casting.
you havent changed to smoking Egyptian cigarettes, have you?
i suppose it's neither the here nor there, it's the FUTURE that matters, may i have another match? you might at least strike it... lol...
it is a small island, you can't run far... whoever did it.

Too true. Harry Belfonte was a hypercrit
No thank you
have known the song all my life, but never seen the film or knew it existed. Not very impressed. tries to be politically relevant but is basically a romcom with a bit of murder thrown in. Waste of a good cast, james mason's character particularly limited.

@@pr-tj5by Because "Island in the Sun" (1957) has an all star cast:
Harry Belafonte, Joan Fontaine,
James Mason, Dame Joan Collins,
Michael Rennie, Patricia Owens,
Stephen Boyd, Diana Wynyard,
Ronald Squire, Basil Sydney,
John Justin, Hartley Power
and Miss Dorothy Dandridge.
Based on the novel by Alec Waugh,
under the direction of Robert Rossen
as well as the writing of Alfred Hayes
and the producing skills of Darryl
F. Zanuck. Although the film received
mixed reviews and its interracial themes,
"Island in the Sun" was a box office success
when it opened on Friday, June 28, 1957
for 20th Century Fox (1957-1985); Disney/Buena Vista (Fall 1985-present).
As of 1997, it was the sixth highest-grossing
film in Disney's history.
It was very controversial at the time of its
1957 release for its on its on-screen
portrayal of its interracial romance.
