Movie Reviews of Lost Horizon
Movie Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this movie when I was in my teens. The acting was amazing and the storyline was fantastic. Even though it was a long movie I enjoyed every minute of it. I know they tried to do a remake in the 70's I believe, didn't really make it through 10 minutes of that one. The movie was well worth the buy and I take it out at least once a year to rewatch.
Summary of Lost Horizon
A timeless masterpiece starring ronald colman and jane wyatt in the lavishly produced vision of shanri-la. Special features: full screen version mono sound subtitles: english spanish portuguese chinese korean thai photo gallery with narration alternate ending three deleted scenes and much more. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 05/27/2008 Starring: Ronald Colman Jane Wyatt Run time: 134 minutes Rating: NrJames Hilton's novel Lost Horizon proposes a perfect hidden community within the uncharted Himalayas, a land where peace reigns and the inhabitants live for hundreds of years. So indelible is this mythical land that its name has entered the culture: Shangri-La. Director Frank Capra, riding high during his mid-'30s hot streak, spared no expense in creating Hilton's paradise onscreen, taxing the coffers of Columbia Pictures and the patience of mogul Harry Cohn. The results, however, are magical: shimmering, seductive, and maybe a bit foolish, truly the creation of an idealist (understandably, the spectacular art direction won an Oscar). And Capra's hero is an idealist, too. Ronald Colman, at his most marvelously elocutionary, plays a wise diplomat whose plane crashes in the snows of Tibet. He and the other survivors are guided to Shangri-La, where they wrestle with the invitation to stay. The young Jane Wyatt plays Colman's love interest, but leaving a more lasting impression are H.B. Warner, as the benevolent Chang, and Sam Jaffe, in great old-age makeup, as the wizened High Lama. This version has been restored as closely as possible to Capra's original cut; the film had circulated for many years in a trimmed form. Lost Horizon was remade, notoriously and hilariously, as a big-budget musical in 1973; it was a complete flop. --Robert Horton
