Black Pearls (1991 film)

Black Pearls is a 1991 German adventure film directed by Klaus Dobrikov and starring James Belushi, Irene Miracle, and Joël Jentner. The film centers around a treasure hunt, specifically the search for valuable black pearls hidden somewhere in the Caribbean. Belushi plays a less-than-honest charter boat captain who gets involved with a wealthy woman (Miracle) and her young son (Jentner) in their quest to find the pearls, facing various dangers and double-crosses along the way. The film is known for its action sequences and exotic locales. While the film garnered some attention upon release, it is generally considered a relatively obscure entry in James Belushi's filmography.
