Every once in a while I like to watch movies of the "epic adventure" category. My favorite ones are from the 1950s, when action editing was just starting to improve and the stories still took center stage. The pacing and atmosphere of these films have that nostalgic feeling that I love. Kim is a great example of this. It's especially fun to watch a young Dean Stockwell play alongside Errol Flynn. Rudyard Kipling's story is wonderful and while the adaptation may not have become a timeless classic, like The Jungle Book, it is still a fun escape.
