Lamour supported Irene Dunne and Randolph Scott in "High, Wide and Handsome" (1937), singing "The Things I Want". Sam Goldwyn borrowed her for John Ford's "The Hurricane" (1937), where she was back in a sarong playing an island princess alongside Jon Hall. Her swimming and diving scenes were handled by stunt double Lila Finn, who at one point dropped the sarong and was filmed diving into a lagoon in the nude. The film was a massive success and gave Lamour another hit song with "The Moon of Manakoora".
