Siren of the Tropics
''Siren of the Tropics'' is a 1927 French silent film starring Josephine Baker. Directed by Mario Nalpas and Henri Étiévant and set in the West Indies, the film tells the story of a native girl named Papitou (Baker) who falls in love with a French man named André Berval (Pierre Batcheff).
==Plot==
The film is set in a fictional colony called Monte Puebla. Monte Puebla is comprised of many different colonial stereotypes, with the name suggesting that it could be a Spanish colony, the grass skirts and roofs suggesting a Polynesian influence, and the clothing being a jumble of multiple cultures.〔Guterl, Matthew Pratt. “Josephine Baker's Colonial Pastiche”. Black Camera 1.2 (2010): 25–37. 〕 The story begins when a rich Parisian man named Marquis Sévéro wishes to marry a woman named Denise, but Denise is in love with an engineer named André Berval. In order to get rid of Berval, Marquis Sévéro sends him to the West Indies as a prospector, promising that he can marry Denise once he returns. After arriving in the West Indies, Berval meets a woman named Papitou. Papitou quickly falls in love with him, unaware of the fact that he is planning on marrying Denise upon his return to Paris. When Berval leaves the West Indies to return home Papitou follows him, despite the fact that he has a fiancé. Once she arrives in Paris, Papitou adjusts to city life and finds her true calling as a music hall performer.
