Lord of Flies (1963)

Plot:  Based on the Golding novel.  A group of English school boys are shipwrecked on a Desert island and things go badly.
Stars:  None - just obscure child actors.

Another mediocre movie based on a great novel. It hits all the plot points -but has undeveloped characters. Unlike the novel, the film can't describe the boys unspoken emotions/motivations - so everything is external/distant. And the direction/beautiful island photography makes it seem - at times - more like a jolly survival tale than a descent into barbarism.

Summary:  Its not bad, but there's no reason to see it.  Just read the book.
