This is an interesting film for two reasons; the performance of Simone Signoret, who was a very fine actress, and the relatively interesting storyline of an innocent and a worldly adventurer winding up with each other. There is a lot of unexplained repression and rebellion by the local population, but in the jungle, it just becomes a matter of survival. That part of the film is actually far more interesting than the chaotic conflict between the citizens and the government. A passable adventure triangle.
