Lost in the Stars Movie Review

This is one of the few American Film Theatre productions I wouldn't mind seeing again. It's based on Alan Paton's Cry the Beloved Country, detailing a minister's search for his son in Johannesburg, South Africa. Brock Peters and a strong supporting cast benefited from on-location filming in Jamaica and the West Indies under the direction of Daniel Mann.

1974 114m/C Brock Peters, Melba Moore, Raymond St. Jacques, Clifton Davis, Paula Kelly; D: Daniel Mann; W: Maxwell Anderson; M: Kurt Weill.
