On a South Sea Island during the Second World War, Nellie Forbush, a young Navy nurse from Little Flock, meets and falls in love with a handsome, middle- aged Frenchman named Emile de Becque. De Becque is a planter who has lived on the island for 25 years. He asks Nellie to marry him, and she promises to consider his proposal. Also stationed on the island are sailors., seabees, and marines. The chief hobby of these men is to collect souvenirs. A rivalry has developed between Seabee Luther Billis-who has cornered the market in everything from grass skirts to shrunken heads-and Bloody Mary, his Tonkinese competitor. A handsome, young marine, Lt. Joe Cable, arrives on the island and attempts to persuade de Becque to accompany him on a secret mission. The island commander asks Nellie to attain all the information she can about the French- man. Meanwhile, Joe Cable sails to the mysterious island of Bali Ha'i. There Bloody Mary introduces him to Liat, her beautiful daughter, and they fall in love. Nellie is confused about her feelings for Emile and tries to forget him. However, he invites her to a party to meet his friends. She is perfectly happy until she learns that the two half-Polynesian children are Emile's, and that their mother was a native. Nellie cannot accept this and runs from Emile. At the same time, Joe Cable, despite his love for Liat, is caught in a similar trap of his own prejudices, and he refuses to marry her. Emile agrees to accompany Joe on the mission because he feels that all he cares about is lost. They are successful for a time, but then they are discovered, and Joe is killed. Emile returns safely to find that love has triumphed over prejudice. Nellie is waiting for him with his children. 95
