"James A Michener's Hawaii"
From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawaii_(film)
"Hawaii is a 1966 American film directed by George Roy Hill and
based on the novel of the same name by James A. Michener. It tells
the story of an 1820s Yale University divinity student (Max von
Sydow) who, along with his new bride (Julie Andrews), becomes a
Calvinist missionary in the Hawaiian Islands. It was filmed at Old
Sturbridge Village, in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, and on the island
of Oahu in Hawaii.
The film was based on the book's third chapter, From the Farm of
Bitterness, which covered the settlement of the island kingdom by
its first American missionaries.[1]

Needing a Polynesian female for the key role of Queen Malama, the
Alii Nui, the producers hired a native Tahitian for the role.
French-speaking Jocelyne LaGarde had never acted before and could
not speak English; however, her screen test showed a powerful
presence, and the producers hired a coach to train her phonetically
to handle the character's dialog. Of the all-star cast, LaGarde
would be the only one to earn an Academy Award nomination and the
only one to win a Golden Globe Award. The film was also the
highest-grossing film of 1966."
