In: Roger Blunck Collection (Library of Congress)Cast: James Aubrey, Tom Chapin, Hugh Edwards, Roger Elwin, Tom Gaman.Summary: In the hands of the renowned experimental theater director Peter Brook, William Golding's legendary novel on the primitivism lurking beneath civilization becomes a film as raw and ragged as the lost boys at its center. Taking an innovative documentary-like approach, Brook shot Lord of The Flies with an off-the-cuff naturalism, seeming to record a spontaneous eruption of its characters' IDs. The result is a rattling masterpiece, as provocative as its source material.
