Nate and Hayes, also known as Savage Islands UK title, is a 1983 swashbuckling adventure film set in the South Pacific in the late 19th century. Directed by Ferdinand Fairfax and filmed on location in Fiji and New Zealand, it starred Tommy Lee Jones, Michael OKeefe and Jenny Seagrove.
The film tells the story of missionary Nathaniel Nate Williamsen OKeefe, taken to an island mission with his fiancee Sophie Seagrove. Their ship, the Rona, is captained by the roguish Bully Hayes Jones, who also takes a liking to Sophie. When Sophie is kidnapped by slave trader Ben Pease Max Phipps, Nate teams with Hayes in order to find her. The plot is essentially a setup for a rousing series of Indiana Jones style action set pieces, including a sequence on a suspension bridge which greatly resembles the climax of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, though Nate and Hayes was released a year earlier.The film has a small but very loyal fanbase which seems to have encouraged the release of the film on Regionand RegionDVD, in June and November 2006 respectively. ........
