Product Description
King of the Coral Sea (1953)
Director:
Lee RobinsonWriters:
Chips Rafferty (original screenplay), Lee Robinson (original screenplay)Stars:
Chips Rafferty, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Ilma AdeyPopular Australian film star Chips Rafferty heads the cast of King of Coral Sea. His character name, in fact, is King, Ted King to be exact. Our hero lives and works on Thursday island, center of Australia's pearling industry. The pearl-diving element of the story is forgotten as King confronts a gang of crooks who are busily smuggling migrant workers onto the island. The supporting cast is largely made up of local Australian stage and radio celebrities, whose fame meant little to American audiences. The one tangible selling angle of King of Coral Sea is its superb location photography.

Early Australian film classic
Posted by Des on Jun 14th 2015
Fun film about pearl oyster fishing set on Thursday Island. Two forms of diving are shown, the traditional helmet type (Rafferty) and an early type of SCUBA (Tingwell). Chips Rafferty is wonderful and has great support from Charles Tingwell and in a small role Rod Taylor. Recommended for fans of these actors.
