Jivaro (also known as Lost Treasure of the Amazon) is a 1954 American 3-D adventure film directed by Edward Ludwig and starring Fernando Lamas, Rhonda Fleming and Brian Keith. Publicity material for the film translates Jivaro as "headhunters of the Amazon". Originally filmed in 3-D, due to a decline in interest Jivaro was not presented in that format in its original 1954 theatrical release. It finally had its 3-D debut on September 17, 2006 at "The World 3-D Expo" in Hollywood. [1] [2]
Alice Parker (Fleming) arrives at the Brazilian trading outpost of Rio Galdez (Lamas) in search of her fiancé (Denning), an alcoholic engineer who has ventured into dangerous Jívaro territory on a quest for gold. [3]
In April 1952, Pine-Thomas Productions announced they had bought the novel Morro Treasure by David Duncan and hired Duncan to write the script. [4]
The film was known as Lost Treasure of the Amazon. In August John Payne was announced as star as part of a two-picture contract with Pine Thomas, the other being High Voltage. [5] Payne ended up not appearing in the film and High Voltage was never made.
Rhonda Fleming and Fernando Lamas were cast in April 1953. [6]
