A Betty Boop cartoon released on September 23, 1932 by Max and Dave Fleischer. Bimbo sails to an island in the South Sea and meets Betty, who is a native to the island. The highlight of the short is a hula dance done by Betty using some very fluid rotoscoping.The short features stereotypical and offensive islander designs as was common with cartoons in this era.Features music by the Polynesian style band The Royal Samoans with their hula dancer Lotamuru used as the model for Betty's hula dancing. | |

"I Can't Look!" Gesture | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_45554ca2 | comment |
"I Can't Look!" Gesture: A flower upon seeing Betty's lewd hula dance, covers it's eyes and for added measure, buries it's head in the sand. | |

When Trees Attack: The trees don't actually attack, but their singing scares Bimbo out of his wits. | |

Hollywood Natives | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_6a36abe2 | comment |
Hollywood Natives: The stereotypical natives have earrings, nose rings and wear bones, usually on the top of their head; Betty is the exception (except the earrings of course) and just looks like herself but with darker skin and hula wear. | |

Murder Water | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_7079ee4b | comment |
Murder Water: Some helpful fish stop Betty and Bimbo's canoe from going down the waterfall, but the water itself gains some arms and starts a tug of war match with the fish with the purpose of making them go down the falls; but instead they are flung across the island and onto dry land. | |

Reflective Eyes | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_88384522 | comment |
Reflective Eyes: While looking over Betty's body, Bimbo's left pupil changes to a reflection showing Betty. When Betty notices, her reflection shuts Bimbo's eyelid similarly to someone pulling down a window shade. | |

Kissing Discretion Shot | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_8e47b1f5 | comment |
Kissing Discretion Shot: Bimbo sneaks a kiss with Betty behind a cloud of cigar smoke and becomes flustered when it clears. The final shot has Betty and Bimbo kiss, but Bimbo uses an umbrella to get some privacy from the audience, except that the umbrella has a hole directly where their heads are. | |

Cranial Eruption | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_914f06af | comment |
Cranial Eruption: Bimbo purposely does this to himself by hitting himself in the head with a bone and then wearing the bone on the bump as part of his Samoan disguise. | |

Rotoscoping | |
| Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle / int_ac5fa94 | comment |
Rotoscoping: Some extremely impressive rotoscoping is done, first by some natives doing a synchronized dance, followed by Betty doing a hula dance at the beach. The Royal Samoans' hula dancer Lotamuru was the model used for Betty's dancing. | |
