It was not a success at the box office and is considered a lost film.[3] PlotHarold Wilson inherits a map showing the location of a hoard of diamonds. He sets out to find them with Howard Morrison and his wife. On a lonely stretch of the coast they meet Ruth Jeffries and her father, a fugitive from the police, who has the diamonds. Howard steals the diamonds, kills Jeffries, abducts Ruth, and puts Harold and his wife in an open boat out to sea. Mrs Morrison dies but Harold is rescued. He tracks down Ruth, saves her from Howard – who has discovered the diamonds are worthless – and marries Ruth.[3] Cast
ProductionThe film reunited director Gerald Hayle with Beth Darvall, the star of his previous film, Environment (1927). It was shot in July 1927 partly in an old cinema in the Melbourne suburb of Glenhuntly which had been converted into a studio, with location work done near Portsea, Victoria, at Sorrento, Beauamris and Black Bock, Melbourne.[3][4] ReleaseHayle announced plans to make another movie with Darvall, The Sanctuary.[5] It does not appear to have been made, but they worked together again on Tiger Island (1930).
