Stranded Pearl
Film (Trailer) – 2024
Great, I'm stuck here with a mute.
– A frustrated Julia (Kristy Wright) after Sid (Aunanda Naaido) refuses to talk
I'm going to sue everybody once I get off this island.
– American businesswoman Julia (Kristy Wright) loses her composure
A six-year labour of love for producer and star Aunanda Naaido, this is clearly pitched as a natural successor to The African Queen, Romancing the Stone and The Lost City. While it might not boast those movies’ star-power, or even come close to their slickness, there’s a certain shaggy, daggy charm to this made-on-a-shoestring-budget affair.– Post writer James Croot in a three star review, 12 September 2024
