Lost Horizon

“At last! The masterpiece of America's foremost film genius blazes to the screen!”

A plane carrying the British diplomat Robert Conway (Ronald Colman) and a handful of civilians goes down in the Himalayas, and the survivors are led to Shangri-La, a hidden valley sheltered by the mountains. Frank Capra sets its calm against the clouds of another war gathering in the world below. For Conway, worn out by that world, the valley offers an escape, and the question is whether he can ever leave it.
