This Joel McCrea double feature DVD begins with BIRD OF PARADISE. In this south sea island adventure a man aboard a yacht rescues a beautiful native girl from a volcano. He falls in love with her, wishing he could stay, but he has to overcome many obstacles. The second feature, THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME, is one of the tightest, action-filled 62 minutes in movie history! a crazed Russian expatriate hunts people who shipwreck on his deserted island for sport... but McCrea and Wray are tougher prey than he expects. Note The Most Dangerous Game was filmed almost simultaneously with another RKO classic King Kong and shared many of the same sets and personnel.
