Loyalty & Perseverance...
The
true story of Henri Charriere's escape from
Devil's Island and the penal colony in French
Guyana. This adventure classic of a wrongly
imprisoned man is one of the greatest films of
all time.
McQueen and Hoffman give two of the
best performances I've ever witnessed. "Papillon"
is an epic story framed with spectacular
sequences and scenery and emotionally balanced
with one of the most beautiful scores ever. This
film earns every emotion it asks from the viewer
so that, by the time the final scene rolls, it is hard to
stop the tears.
This is a story about
perseverance, injustice, hope, love &
friendship. If you liked 'The Shawshank
Redemption'... you will love this film. For all
intents and purposes, this film is without flaw
and ranks as one of the best movies ever made.
