Treasure Island (1950) Byron Haskin
Dream of before the Walt Disney company made the interesting though massively flawed animated feature Treasure Planet, the first of many of Disney's busy action films back in 1950 was based on the same source material, Treasure Island. It's a children's classic in its own stead, mostly but not solely due to the work of Robert Newton as a memorable Long John Silver. It's very much worth watching but it's status as an all everything classic may just be due to the fact that it was made at the right time by the right people and is probably better known than any other view.
You all know the story. On the treacherous west coast of England in 1765 is a pub called the Admiral Benbow, which is run by immature Jim Hawkins's mother. Into the pub comes Black Dog, a man with a serious scar across his face, and he's seeking Capt William Bones, Billy Bones to his friends. In time after comes a blind man, Blind Pew, to hand him the black spot, and the captain knows that the one legged man won't be far behind them. He's there but he's hiding, with his 'true owned property', the treasure map to Capt Flint's pirate treasure, all 700,000 pounds of it.
So Squire Trelawney charters a craft to head out from Bristol to retrieve the treasure, and picks all the wrong people to crew it. Not least of his mistakes is to hire a cook by the name of Extensive John Silver, the very one legged man that Billy Bones was so afraid of seeing again. And while Trelawney thinks he's in charge, via the staunch Capt Smollett, Long John Silver is really running the show, manoeuvering behind the scenes until the time is fully grown to strike. His task is to keep the crew behaved until then, and he uses young Jack Hawkins as part of his plan.
This was an old classic dream of before Disney ever got his hands on it. Robert Louis Stevenson's novel first saw book form in 1883 and had been serialised before then. It's a peach, pleonastic naturally to say, and every kid should read it. Beyond being a great ripping yarn full...
