About The Lad and the Lion
While on vacation from college, William Bankinton is shipwrecked. His mind a blank, he is picked up by a derelict ship upon which there are only a lion and a stowaway named Broot. After Broot commits suicide, Bankinton and the lion are cast adrift upon the shores of Africa where they exist in a primitive state for several months.
Directed by Alfred E. Green, The Lad and the Lion leans on a strong ensemble — Vivian Reed, Will Machin, Charles Le Moyne — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1917.
