Product Description

 
A young English colonial is sent to the jungles of the Sarawalk during the 1930s. Inside this steamy jungle the officer meets with a beautiful native (Jessica Alba) who is assigned to teach the native language to him. Their tutoring sessions evolve into a passionate bonding of forbidden love. It is not long before this romance is pulled apart by war, as the British troops and the tutor's tribe are enmeshed in battle.

Excuse Me, Dear, I Have A Few Words I Would Like to Learn Tonight...

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2003
