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, whp persuasively conveys the conflict between her acquired culture and the call of the bush.

The primitive vitality J and dark intensity of this lithe, bearded J man make him a credible and a terrifying ‘ character.” J Also Featuring t CONSTABLE TAS FITZER ’ —Northern Territory Mounted Police— ’ formerly of Christchurch playing a I part based on his famous real-life capture : of the notorious outlaw Nemaluk.
