Organized geographically, The Kaua’i Movie Book covers everything from blockbusters like Raiders of the Lost Ark to documentaries, foreign films and surf movies. Includes a guide to movie locations, index, at-a-glance movie facts, and over 300 full-color photographs.

Hollywood has long been fascinated with beauty ranging from the stars who light up the screen to the locations that provide the scenery and the atmosphere. The lure of the Hawaiian Islands could not be resisted. “Made in Paradise” brings you a pictorial account of Hollywood films made in or about Hawai`i and the South Sea Islands. The photography includes movie stills, location shots and the legends themselves — including Rita Hayworth, Humphrey Bogart, Montgomery Clift, Dorothy Lamour, and Deborah Kerr. The result is Hollywood’s adventures in Hawai`i and Hawi`i’s portrayal on the silver screen.
