It’s a cheerfully fanciful fable about a boozy beachcomber (Mr. Grant) who finds himself hot only shanghaied to be a wartime coastwatcher for the Ausutralian Navy on a lonely island in the New Guinea group, but also finds himself having to share his perilous outpost with a gaggle of stranded schoolgirls and their prissy custodian, played by Miss Caron.
I think the ending in the movie works, too. And the reason it works in the movie is that “The Natural” is a fairy tale from start to finish, full of wildly implausible scenes that win over our emotions because, frankly, that’s the way we’d like life to be.
