HERE IS THE PICTURE THAT ONLY AUSTRALIA COULD GIVE THE WORLD A PICTURE OF THE REAL, THE NEVER-BEFORE-FILMED AUSTRALIA PHOTOGRAPHED AGAINST THE VAST GRANDEUR OF THE NORTHERN TERRITORY AND ARNHEM LAND Columbia Presents “JEDDA” Breath-Taking in its Scenic Beauty! Dramatic and Vital in its Story of Primitive Passions and Savage Revenge! Introducing Ngarla Kunoth and Robert Tudawali —of whom "The Auckland Star” writes:— “Jedda” is played not by a German stripteaser, but by Ngarla Kunoth, a graceful, natural Aborigine girl, who persuasively conveys the conflict between her acquired culture and the call of the bush. But it is Robert Tudawali as Marbuck, the half-savage native, who steals Jedda from a Northern Territory station, who dominates the picture. The primitive vitality and dark intensity of this lithe, bearded man make him a credible and a terrifying character.” Also Featuring CONSTABLE TAS FITZER —Northern Territory Mounted Police—- ; formerly of Christchurch playing a • part based on his famous real-life capture ■ of the notorious outlaw Nemaluk, Produced and Directed by CHARLES CHAUVtL In Gevacolor “JEDDA” A Story of Eve in Ebony (Approved for Universal Exhibition with Censor’s Recommendation That Some Parts May Be Disturbing to Young and Nervous Children.)
