I didn't care about the story but the scenery is lovely of course.  John Boorman directed.

The main appeal for me was the South Pacific scenery and seeing who would turn up next, but I didn't care about the story, with its seemingly endless threads.  John Ford directed, and it does feel a bit Westernish at times.

Although this is very much not my genre, I do have to say that the first quarter is well done, especially the acting and the clever way the (late) opening credits appear.  The movie is based on the E.M. Nathanson novel and directed by Robert Aldrich.
