A 1930s Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Movie One-sheet (Learn More) The Blonde Captive, the 1931 Paul Withington Columbia Pictures Australian Aborigine jungle adventure thriller ("Captured by cavemen!"; "An absolutely authentic amazing adventure!"; "The strongest warrior won her for his bride!"; "Harpooning the Dugong"; "The Ceremony of the Breaking of the Teeth"; "The Blonde Captive Waves Farewell to Civilization!"; "Under the Auspices of The National Research Council of Australia"; "Produced by Northern Australia Expedition Syndicate") featuring Clifton Chiles, and Paul Withington, with dialogue and narration by Lowell Thomas ("The Voice of the Literary Digest"). Note that there are posters for this movie that do not have a studio listed, buy say "William Pizor presents", and there are also lobby cards, a pressbook, and a glass slide that are identified as being from Columbia Pictures. My guess of what happened is as follows: after the great success of "Africa Speaks" in 1931, I believe William Pizor discovered that in 1929 Paul Withington, an anthropology professor at Harvard, and Clifford Childs, an Australian archeologist, had organized an expedition to the Australian Aboriginal territories. Apparently, William Pizor took the footage these men had filmed, and somehow created a wild exploitation movie called "The Blonde Captive", likely using footage from the above men's expedition, combined with new (and likely "faked") footage! Based on the the items that have surfaced, it appears that there was nudity in the movie, and not just "native" nudity, but a nude white woman. There is a researcher who thinks that this movie was first released by William Pizor, and then released briefly by Columbia Pictures, and then re-released by William Pizor! More research certainly needs to be done on all of this! If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
