(1937, Frank Capra) Everyman’s search for Shangri-La, as diplomat Ronald Colman and his oddly-assorted party, air-napped in the Himalayas, stumble on a lost city deep in a mountain valley. A radical change of pace for director Frank Capra – with four times the budget of his studio’s previous record – adapted by Robert Riskin from James Hilton’s pseudo-mystical best-seller. This new 4K restoration, including a newly-recovered scene missing for over 75 years, is the most complete version since its original release. DCP. Approx. 133 min.
