The Planter's Wife (1952) ( Outpost in Malaya ) ( White Blood )

Seller has helpfully included instructions on how to access English language soundtrack on this Spanish DVD (not difficult). I got this to help with some research into the period- I was not disappointed as details of vehicles, uniforms etc are very accurate. Also, it's a rattling good yarn! Fascinating stock footage of fight to the death between mongoose and cobra has been cleverly inserted into the film. Great cast, highly recommended.

This version of the DVD is 1 hour and 24 minutes long. Do not purchase this DVD because there is another uncensored version which is 1 hour and 28 minutes long. The censor has cut a 4 minute section in the middle of the DVD abruptly and this destroys how the film plays.

I have to disagree with the 1 star reviewer. The trouble is the menus are all in spanish so it needs a bit of work. I used google translate to work out what to do but basically you select 'Idiomas' from the first menu, then 'version original' from the second followed by 'sin subtitlos'. Finally choose 'Ver Pelicula' (view movie) and away you go.

Very good adventure movie. Good actors.

Mature actors Jack Hawkins and Claudette Colbert play their parts to the full with the stiff upper lip. Build up of tension excellent and final scenes do not disapoint. Soldiers of that period will recognise much to remember.

this is a suspenseful heartfelt foray into the world of the Malay Emergency in the 1950s. Great stuff. No PC straitjackets, and unexpectedly insightful. Jack Hawkins is great in this.

Very disappointing, when compared with the film the 7th Dawn, which is a more gripping film, and well acted.

First saw this movie when I was in my teens and was glad to see it on dvd at last. Thoroughly enjoyed it again.Movie in very good condition./ Thank you.
