Product Description
About This Item
Looking for an intense and gripping prison escape drama? Look no further than Papillon [DVD] [1973] [1974]. Based on the true story of Henri 'Papillon' Charriere, this film adaptation features the legendary Steve McQueen as the eponymous hero, alongside the talented Dustin Hoffman. Set in the infamous Devil's Island prison, Papillon refuses to succumb to the cruelty of the prison regime. He becomes a protector to Louis Dega, a bespectacled inmate played by Dustin Hoffman, and together they make a daring bid for freedom.
However, their escape attempt lands Papillon in solitary confinement for a prolonged period. Undeterred, Papillon returns to the main prison and makes another daring escape attempt with Dega by his side. Directed by Franklin J Schaffner, known for his epic filmmaking style, Papillon delivers a compelling portrayal of the indomitability of the human spirit and man's insatiable desire for freedom. The film's unflinching depiction of the barbarism within civilised societies sets it apart from other prison escape dramas.
In this harsh world, the only characters displaying genuine kindness are the social outcasts, while everyone else has been corrupted and debased by the penal system itself. Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman deliver impressive performances, with Hoffman shining as the cowardly Dega and McQueen showcasing his versatility in the emotionally demanding solitary confinement sequences. The film is further elevated by the extraordinary score composed by Jerry Goldsmith, known for his work on films such as Planet of the Apes and Patton. This Papillon DVD features an anamorphic widescreen print in the original Panavision 2.35:1 ratio, showcasing the film's stunning cinematography. The Dolby 5.1 audio accentuates the powerful score, which can also be enjoyed separately as an isolated track.
The DVD also includes a captivating 12-minute featurette, "Magnificent Rebel," which offers behind-the-scenes footage and insights from Henri Charrière himself. If you're a fan of classic cinema and thrilling prison escape stories, be sure to add Papillon [DVD] [1973] [1974] to your collection. Experience the timeless themes of freedom and resilience as you follow Papillon's extraordinary journey to escape the inescapable Devil's Island prison. Don't miss out on this must-have film for any movie enthusiast.
