Title: Treasure Island
Product review: This is the definitive screen version of one of the greatest adventure classics of all time. If anything Fraser Heston's picture enhances Robert Louise Stevenson's prose. One of the most celebrated and inspired cast of any picture ever. Christian Bale as Jim Hawkins! No one else could ever be Long John Silver after Charlton Heston's portrayal. Oliver Reed! Christopher Lee! And a supporting cast of character actors that should not be missed. Treasure Island is one of my top five favorite movies of all time. After receiving my DVD ( I waited years for the DVD release) I watched it back to back once the original version, then with Fraser Heston's ( Charlton Heston's son) commentary. The end of this movie is as iconoclastic as the end of Planet of the Apes. And to think this started out as a TNT made for TV production. It is so much more in every way.
