(1937) Lost Horizon.

Well made ADVENTURE DRAMA film about striving for eternal life and how we can get there. Based on a novel by Hilton of the same name about a place which cannot be found on the map called Shangra- La. What this film does quite well was debate it's issues about living in a youthful enviroment. Anybody familiar with Frank Capra's other work such as "It's A Wonderful Life" and "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington" will surely love this film too.

Footnote: Certain scenes was actually destroyed by an earthquake so freeze frames had to be used.

4/4.
