Movie Reviews of Diamond Head
Movie Review: "It's all you've got left, isn't it? Brute force."
Summary: 3 Stars
Richard 'King' Howland and his sister Sloane (Heston and Mimieux) live on an island, the only wonderful place that gets bigger every time they saw it from the sky...
Sloane has just returned from California graduated but she despises waiting... She has something on her mind to tell her brother about Paul (James Darren). So she asks her brother how did he feel about Paul Kahana?
The whole film is about racial intolerance and it sends a strong message, which kept the story interesting... Trade with them, be friends with them, even sleep with them, but don't marry them...
This is Hawaii... It can happen here, and it does all the time... For Laura Beckett (Elizabeth Allen), King's sister-in-law, it happens, but not to people of their class... For King, if Sloane marries Paul, her children will inherit Manoalani one day, and all that goes with it... Paul is pure Hawaiian... Their families have been in these islands over a hundred years... They have never mixed their blood...
Charlton Heston plays a rich narrow-minded pineapple grower, obstinately and intolerantly devoted to his own beliefs, even though he himself having an affair with Mai Chen (France Nuyen), the woman who doesn't ask questions...
Mai knows that most women can make the world go away for a while, but none can make it stay away...Richard Knows that he's in danger of becoming an uncle... His sister and himself are the last of their line...Her son will own Manoalani one day and he has to be the right kid of son... Obviously he could have a child... He might even have a son... But he has no intention of marrying again... But Mai Chen thinks differently... He should have his own son... But King had a son... His name was Richard Howland III... He was 3 years old that day... A tidal wave, 40-foot crest smashed into Hilo and killed him and his mother and 120 others ... So he doesn't want another son...
Yvette Mimieux achieved stardom in "Where the Boys Are" (1960) and here, she is incredibly fresh, innocent and beautiful...
Filmed in Color and Wide Screen, the photography is too beautiful presenting a tropical paradise of turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, waving palm trees, lush tropical vegetation and gentle sunshine...
