A Masterful Prehistoric Fantasy
It is very clear that this film is not to depict what we actually know about primative man... and it was the directors intention to counter "science fiction of the future" with this masterpiece of "science fiction of the past".The acting, mannerisms, cinematography, music, and scope of this production is lush and yet frightening. It is a work of cinematic art... just incredible to watch and experience.I bought this DVD remembering how much I enjoyed the VHS many years ago and I was astounded at the beauty and clarity of this DVD transfer. The magnificent Phillipe Sarde score performed by the London Symphony alone make this a wonderful addition to any videophile's library.I think this is the PERFECT movie to play just before watching "2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY".... a perfect double feature.
