South of Tahiti is a 1941 American south seas adventure film directed by George Waggner and starring Brian Donlevy, Broderick Crawford and Andy Devine.[1] It helped launch fourth-billed Maria Montez as a pin-up star.[2] The response was such that Universal Pictures then cast her in Arabian Nights.[3]
