Isle of Fury is a 1936 American adventure film directed by Frank McDonald and starring Humphrey Bogart, Margaret Lindsay, and Donald Woods.
The film was adapted by Robert Hardy Andrews and William Jacobs from the 1932 novel The Narrow Corner by W. Somerset Maugham.
On the island of Tankana in the South Pacific, a violent storm rages while wedding vows are being exchanged between Val Stevens and Lucille Gordon in a small home ceremony.
His thinly capitalized pearl business is in imminent jeopardy when he learns that his native divers refuse to harvest after two of their men drown.
Over a very wet nightcap later that evening the doctor tells Eric that he knows that he is a detective who was sent to the island to capture Val, who is wanted by the authorities for a murder.
Val rushes there, angrily misconstrues a warm hand-in-hand goodbye, but is promptly set straight by the doctor upon his fortuitous arrival.
Before anyone can make a rash and possibly fatal move, Lucille's grandfather stretches a gun into the room and shoots the captain dead.
