Additional InformationThis faithful adaptation of Joseph Conrad's 1900 novel tells the story of a romantic young Englishman, Jim (Peter O'Toole), who takes to the sea on a merchant vessel in his quest for adventure. Imagining himself to be a great man with a bright future, Jim instead deserts at the first true test of his mettle--in a torrential storm that threatens the ship and the lives of its passengers. Wracked with guilt and shame over his cowardly act, Jim travels the world in search of an opportunity to prove his worth and retrieve his lost honour. He finds such an opportunity in the jungles of Southeast Asia, where he leads the oppressed natives in a revolt against the tyrannical general who rules over them. Peter O'Toole is charming as the well-mannered and honourable Englishman who is haunted by his past mistakes. Surrounded by lush beauty and the captivating spirit of the islanders, he rediscovers his courage and honour and ultimately finds redemption. Filmed on location in Cambodia and Hong Kong, this epic resonates with the power of its exotic and gorgeous settings, creating an almost dreamlike atmosphere.

An average movie drawn from a great book
The problem with this film is that Peter O'Toole as Lord Jim is never convincingly real. To me he always appears to be working out the way he'll play his lines, so they become mannered and studied. There's even a feeling that he wants the "T E Lawrence" magic to emerge to save an otherwise misguided performance. He just doesn't fit his persona into the character of Jim. Trouble is, he's such a compelling screen presence that he kind of gets away with his effect on the screen without actually playing the role of Lord Jim I wonder how Albert Finney would have come across in the role - a very creative and original actor, he would certainly have got much more variety and drama out of Jim's character. Nevertheless because Joseph Conrad is such a masterful writer of great yarns, director Richard Brooks does manage to give us good couple of hours' entertainment, superbly capped by a fascinating, untypical and highly intelligent performance by James Mason.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
