    Not uninteresting, but beware this episode is a comedy drama one, not a drama. An offbeat comedy with Charles Boyer at his peak. It is totally unbelievable but who cares about this. A pure enjoyable moment for the viewer. Another two men on an isolated island scheme, as was John Boorman's HELL IN THE PACIFIC. Some poignant moments in this not foreseeable topic, a sort of tribute to loneliness and friendship. At least that's here my own opinion. A story that makes you think a long about it long after the viewing. I don't want to speak longer about it because I don't want to spoil the whole and waste the pleasure you could take from it. Don Medford made it, and that's a good piece of work.
