Elephant Walk (1954)

Film · 1954 · 103 min · NR · Romance · Adventure · Drama

One man claimed the land. Two men claimed the woman who lived there.

Colonial tea planter John Wiley, visiting England at the end of World War II, weds lovely English rose Ruth and takes her home to Elephant Walk, Ceylon, where the local elephants have a grudge against the plantation. Ruth's delight with the tropical wealth and luxury of her new home is tempered by isolation as the only white woman in the district; her husband's occasional imperious arrogance; a mutual physical attraction with plantation manager Dick Carver; and the hovering, ominous menace of the hostile elephants.

Directed by William Dieterle

Starring Elizabeth Taylor, Peter Finch, Dana Andrews, Abraham Sofaer, Abner Biberman, Noel Drayton, Rosalind Ivan, Barry Bernard
