While searching a thread searching for something else I stumbled upon an Australian movie called Walk Into Paradise/Walk Into Hell 1958 that also was nominated for a Palm d'Or, this time for director Lee Robinson, and who also lost. Lee Robinson would later be the producer of the TV-series Skippy - The Bush Kangaroo in the 1960s, maybe Australias first exported TV-series (??). Seems that Lee Robinson together with actor Chips Raffety, tried to start up an Australian film production company, aiming both for the local market and for the international markets. American producer Joseph E. Levine purchased the film for distribution, and retitled it to Walk Into Hell. I have not personally seen this movie but for those interested, from Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walk_Into_ParadiseThanks for your thoughts here teleadam... a surprise to see your mention of the film Walk into Paradise (1956) I have a copy on the way from ordering earlier this week!, looks like a great adventure and exciting on location filming in PNG. I was just curious how the movie turned out !?! If it's been delivered...
