Criterion Collection - Lord Of The Flies/bd - Blu-ray

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 it's 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 it's characters' ids. The result is a rattling masterpiece, as provocative as it's source material.
