Synopsis
The scene is a group of islands in the South Pacific during World War II. Most of the islands are Japanese held and the war has not been going well for the Americans. A company of American sailors (Seabees) and a naval hospital are located on one of the islands away from most of the action. The men are mostly involved in finding ways of relieving the boredom.
Chief among the sailors is Luther Billis, who is never short of a plan to get into some action; whether it be trading or competing with bloody Mary, the matriarchal Tonkinese entrepreneur; taking a boat over to the nearby island of Bali Ha'i, where the exotic Boar's Tooth ceremony take place; or as a member of the Thanks giving Follies, putting on a show for the men, Billis is always in the thick of it!
Nurse Nellie Forbush has joined the navy to see the world and meet different people from those in her small town home of Little Rock, Arkansas. She has recently met Emile de Becque, a middle-aged French planter with a questionable past, and they are obviously attracted to one another.
The island commander, Captain Brackett, and his side-kick Commander Harbison are frustrated at the lack of action until Lieutenant Joe Cable arrives on the island with a plan to spy on the Japanese from behind enemy lines. This is a dangerous mission for which he needs local knowledge which could be supplied by Emile. Will he help? Or is he too smitten with Nellie to be prepared to risk his life for others?
Meanwhile, Joe cable falls for Liat, a beautiful Tonkinese girl, but realizes he cannot marry her because of a deep-seated racial prejudice. Will he go on the dangerous mission? How will he resolve the conflict between his emotions and his prejudices?
