¹ Originally broadcast on US TV as an episode of Walt Disney Presents (1958-61).

² This appears to be a compilation of footage from at least two different items - Naturisme, filles d’Eve, les filles du soleil (short film directed by Michel d’Olivier) and L’île aux femmes nues (directed by Henri Lepage, produced by d’Olivier) - both shot in 1952, with a small amount of linking footage created for the subsequent US/UK release print. I could find no other info on credited co-director ‘Gerald Tors’, which may well be a pseudonym for whoever assembled the material for English-speaking territories.
