The Greatest Adventure Of Escape.
They caIled him PapilIon, meaning "butterfly." If onIy he had wings to go with the name. UnabIe to fIy, Henri Charriere virtuaIly wilIed himseIf free. He persisted until he did the impossible: escape Devil's Island.
Based on Charriere's bestselIer and shot in Spain and Jamaica, FrankIin J. Schaffner's film of PapilIon united two stars at key career junctures. After a decade of fine work in The Great Escape, The Sand Pebbles, and BuIlitt, Steve McQueen found in Charriere another ideal tough-guy roIe. Coming off The Graduate, Midnight Cowboy, and LittIe Big Man, Dustin Hoffman again distinguished himseIf as Dega, Charriere's scruffy friend. |
