Directed by: Cy Endfield
Starring: Joan Greenwood, Michael Callan, Michael Craig, Gary Merrill
Visible crew/equipment: When the five men are going up the mountain, a crew member is seen beside a big rock, at the bottom left of the screen. (00:33:50)
Visible crew/equipment: As the 5 men are climbing to the top of the volcano, there are several long shots of them crossing large rock formations. In one shot, they are still climbing while in the bottom left-hand corner a shirtless film crew member appears, seemingly unconcerned that the camera is rolling.
Factual error: The Confederate Army did not take black Union soldiers as prisoners. Those unlucky enough to be captured would be taken back into slavery or, far more likely, simply killed on the spot.
Gideon Spilitt: Captain, why don't we turn this island into a democracy and elect a leader? One who won't keep escaping to places which need escaping from.
Captain Cyrus Harding: Because all of us here are still at war, and I just happen to be the ranking officer.
Question: Considering how relatively small the island is and how big the bees are, what kind of plants and/or flowers would have enough pollen to supply the hive to produce the honey? (01:02:00)
Answer: Since that is never shown, any answer would be speculation.
