The Little Hut is the first film starring Ava Gardner that I was quite disappointed with, the story about a kind of love triangle with a bizarre kind of humor that never really becomes funny.
Ava is stranded on a desert island with her husband and a friend she occasionally has fun with and soon a rivalry arises between the two men who compete for her affection .
David Niven plays the 2nd man who quickly gets the short end of the stick and almost only because he is a simp of the most irritating kind, his character is portrayed in such an exaggerated way that it quickly starts to irritate you as a spectator.
But the story is simply too boring, the humor is too mediocre and even the beautiful appearance of Ava Gardner cannot save the film from destruction.
