Synopsis
"Lost Horizon" (1937), now colorized, is an epic adventure film directed by Frank Capra, based on the novel by James Hilton. Starring Ronald Colman, the film tells the enchanting story of a group of travelers who, after a plane crash, find themselves in the mystical and isolated Shangri-La, a hidden utopian valley in the Himalayas.

The story begins when the survivors of a plane crash are rescued by Tibetan monks and brought to Shangri-La, an idyllic and peaceful paradise where the inhabitants live in harmony and never age. The valley is surrounded by steep mountains and shrouded in mystery, with the residents enjoying the benefits of an eternal life. However, as the group of travelers learns, Shangri-La holds dark secrets, including the complex and tragic nature of its timeless existence.

Ronald Colman portrays Robert Conway, the leader of the group, who is torn between the allure of Shangri-La’s peace and eternal youth and the desire to return to the outside world. The colorized version enhances the stunning visuals of the landscapes, making the beauty of Shangri-La even more captivating and the film’s themes of paradise, time, and isolation more powerful.
