Personal Review: The Hawaiians [NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Spain] [Region 2] starring Charlton Heston, Tina Chen, Geraldine Chaplin, Mako, John Phillip Law
This is the sequel to the movie Hawaii with Julie Andrews. I saw this just last year on T.V. and it' a movie about the eldest Hale son who comes back to Hawaii after attending college where his grandparents lived. He deals with the Chinese workers and their culture, and becomes one of the first pineapple growers there. This is a good movie about he early lepers, and how they were dumped on Molokai, and left until their dying days there. It's too bad they don't make this for the real Hawaiians to see, after all, people in Spain could care less about Hawaiian history! This movie needs to be formatted for the U.S., where the movie is originally made to begin with. We want a copy of this on DVD too, but can't find it anywhere except here, where it's not only in Spanish, but in a different code, so it can't be played on our DVD players in the United States. What's up with that? If you live in the U.S., don't buy this DVD from this company, it won't play on your DVD player. This is an excellent movie, and we all want to view it too!
