About This Movie

Elephant Walk is a 1954 romance and adventure film directed by William Dieterle. Its leading cast includes Elizabeth Taylor, Peter Finch and Dana Andrews. It runs for 1 hour 43 minutes.

Synopsis

Colonial tea planter John Wiley, visiting England at the end of World War II, weds lovely English rose Ruth and takes her home to Elephant Walk, Ceylon, where the local elephants have a grudge against the plantation. Ruth's delight with the tropical wealth and luxury of her new home is tempered by isolation as the only white woman in the district; her husband's occasional imperious arrogance; a mutual physical attraction with plantation manager Dick Carver; and the hovering, ominous menace of the hostile elephants.
