Watched this due to seeing Ingrid Bergman was in it and I'm a huge fan of hers. She seems to age like wine and is so beautiful in this movie. Her clothes look lovely on her. Strong woman who knows what she wants. This is more of a character development movie than actual plot movie. It's at the very end where the action happens. The whole town dislikes her because she's different and she tries to be patient with her husband and the town to get money to get to the other side of the volcano to a town where can go to the mainland (Australia or America) up until she's had enough~ well when her husband legit nails the doors shut and entraps her. She decided to run away like a vontrap kid and walks ontop of the volcano to get her and the baby~freedom and happiness.

A bit confusing at the beginning. She meets a boy on the other side of the camp. Known him for what? A few days? Weeks even? She's all smiley as if she is really is in love only for her to be miserable the instant she's married. Married for a visa I suppose?

Pretty decent movie. 2 thumbs up.
