Review of Lord Jim (1965) by Sara R — 13 Jul 2007
A good adaptation of the Joseph Conrad classic. O'Toole is gorgeous, as usual, and carries off the part of Jim, a man haunted by a moment of cowardice, desperate to prove himself. James Mason is underused as the cynical villain to O'Toole's idealistic hero.
It's a Conrad novel, so it must end badly, but the ending is truly sad and touching.
