THE SIXTIES # 311: JEFFREY HUNTER, MARSHALL THOMPSON, RONALD REMY AND BARBARA PEREZ IN "NO MAN IS AN ISLAND" (1962)/ Reposted

Jeffrey Hunter stars in this incredible true story of a lone Navy serviceman and radioman, George Tweed, fighting for his survival on Japanese-occupied Guam during World War II. As Pearl Harbor is attacked, Tweed finds himself trapped on the island of Guam. All other military personnel have either been killed or have surrendered to the invading Japanese forces. Eluding capture, he alone must now find a way to evade the forces that hunt him down relentlessly. With the help of some sympathetic natives, he successfully hid from the Japanese invaders for 34 months, until the US Navy returns.
-->Barbara Perez, the Philippines’ brightest star then, was the perfect choice for the role of ‘Joe,’ a young Guamanian farm girl who befriended the lonely cave-dwelling Hunter. The movie was entirely shot in the Philippines.




She was offered several juicy and lucrative contracts, among them a three-year contract with Universal International and a starring role in a MGM movie, but she declined it and instead chose a simple family life. He was already married to actor Robert Arevalo.
On how Barbara landed that important role in “No Man is an Island,” you can read the whole story here.
