RELENTLESS LOVE IN AN EMPIRE-RISING JUNGLE! Henry King (pointing cane in right foreground) is directing a battle scene wherein the Zulus attack the convoy of Boer pioneers seeking to establish their home in the African jungle. Twenty-six different loca- tions and more than 6,000 natives were used in Africa for exterior se- quences in "Untamed.” “UNTAMED” Susan Hayward as Katie O’Neill meets Paul van Riebeck, famous leader of the Dutch Commandos in South Africa, after an attack on the train by the Zulus. She had fallen in love with him during his visit to her father’s estate in Ireland, but he refused to take her with him to South Africa, for he is dedicated to his people who expect him to be free to do his work. Madly in love with him, she follows him. CARVING AN EMPIRE OUT OF A JUNGLE Producers Bert Friedlob and William A. Bacher and Director Henry King penetrated the wildest portions of the African jungle and plains to inject real- ism into the screenplay of Talbot Jennings and Bacher from Helga Moray’s novel, "The Untamed.” Some 6000 Zulus and several hundred white actors playing Dutch settlers and their families make up the vast cast of this moving drama of courageous people who carved out of the wilderness the Free Dutch State of Africa. Before the eyes of its audience, "Untamed” will unfold the moving drama of men, women and children, who did not know the meaning of fear, built a new civilization, fighting not only savages and beasts, but finding themselves in a war of survival among whites when in the new State is dis- covered first gold and then diamonds. Mr. King and his company spent five months in Africa, filming scenes of the trek, the Zulus’ attacks, the fights with wild animals and disease. The story of "Untamed” starts in Ireland. However, all but that se- quence transpires in the wildest portions of the still dangerous African jungles and plains. It concerns the adventures of strong-willed Katie O’Neil who follows the mdn she is determined to marry to the wilds of Africa, even though he had made it clear he much preferred to continue as head of the Dutch Commandos than to marry her. Africa is no place for a "fine lady like her,” he says, but she proves him wrong. . .and helps found a free nation in an erstwhile land of terror and death. Susan Hayward plays Katie opposite Tyrone Power who is the Commando head determined not to become matrimonially involved, although he has fallen in love with her. Richard Egan is the villainous Kurt who has designs on Katie, though passionately loved by a maid (Rita Moreno) to a member of the settlers’ convoy. Others in major roles are Agnes Moorehead, Brad Dexter, John Justin and Hope Emerson. Page 26 A
