Genres & Description

Adventure Drama Family

7.3 / 10

Sentiment rules in this version of the Twain tale of boyhood in 1850 Missouri, reasonably faithful except for minor details and making the character Jim a boy instead of a man. Includes the whitewash episode, puppy love, the graveyard murder, the boys' running away to Jackson's Island, the salvation of Muff Potter, and the cave adventure.

in my opinion,this big 30s technicolor david o.selznick version of"the adventures of tom sawyer",which he made before GWTW,is a great textbook example of how mark twain should be done on film! - @Tuesday, March 20, 2018 6:37 PM
