Lost Horizon (1937)

Lost Horizon is a 1937 film in which a group of travelers find a utopian society in the Himalayan mountains. The film is based upon the James Hilton novel of the same name. It stars Ronald Colman, Jane Wyatt[?], John Howard, Margo[?], Thomas Mitchell[?], Edward Everett Horton, Isabel Jewell[?], H.B. Warner[?] and Sam Jaffe[?].

The film was adapted by Sidney Buchman[?] (uncredited) and Robert Riskin[?], and directed by Frank Capra. The 1937 film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.

It was remade as a musical in 1973, in which Shangrila[?] was strangely reminiscient of Gilligan's Island.
