The real-life story of movie superstar Erol Flynn was more dramatic and incredible than even the wildest of his many Hollywood starring roles. He may have more swashes than anyone before or since but Flynn was also a liar and a thief an incurable seducer of women and men a fraudster hustler and even murderer... all before the age of 21! Wildly promiscuous from an early age his teenage years were a frantic rollercoaster ride of sex adventure ill-gotten riches drink sex fighting... and more sex. Through this panoramic portrayal of his amazing past the true legend of Flynn is brought explosively to life blowing the lid off his rabble-rousing time in the gutters of Sydney and his death-defying escapades searching for gold in the jungles of New Guinea. Flynn was simply the sexiest most charismatic star of the Golden Era of Hollywood. The epitome of a lusty virile hero Flynn turned the world into his stage as millions fell for his wicked wicked ways.
The Disney touch is all over this grand, colourful version of the Johann Wyss adventure of a European family setting off for the new world of New Guinea. The film opens on a ship jostled and torn by a raging storm while a family struggles to make it through alive. Tossed into a reef near a deserted tropical island, father John Mills takes charge and the family soon turns their island prison into a veritable paradise. Their multi-level tree house, built in record time, is complete with running water and a working pipe organ scavenged from the ship, while their grand yard is abloom in English roses. As a tale of hardship and pioneer pluck it's pure fantasy, but as entertainment it's energetic and appealing. The island is impossibly populated by ostriches, zebras, lions and elephants, a private zoo that delights the youngest boy and offers plenty of comic relief. The two older brothers discover even wilder life when they rescue the prisoner of oriental pirates (led by hard-bitten Sessue Hayakawa). There's little real danger anywhere in the film: even the climactic battle with the pirates is a cartoonish affair, with coconut bombs and non-lethal booby traps, until the final desperate, deadly moments. Hardly a faithful adaptation of the novel, but a lush, beautifully shot film and an entertaining adventure safe for all ages. Dorothy McGuire co-stars as the proper, worry-prone mother. --Sean Axmaker
