Lord of the Flies
ActionAdventureDramaThriller92 min
After a plane crash strands a group of British schoolboys on a deserted island, they try to build their own society, choosing a leader and dividing the work of survival. James Aubrey is Ralph, the elected chief trying to keep order, while Tom Chapin’s Jack pulls the boys toward a rival code built on hunting, fear, and punishment. Shot in stark black and white, Peter Brook’s adaptation strips the story down to arguments, rituals, and the steady collapse of rules as the island turns from refuge into something far more dangerous.
