Guest MortstoX Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 So, I got both the 1963 and the 1990 version of this movie. Both have good ratings on IMDB, so I need you film nerds of watmm to tell me which one to watch.

Guest analogue wings Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 In the '90 version, the kids are from a military academy of some sort - which pretty much misses the entire point of the book - namely that anyone from any background will turn feral in the right circumstances. Watching kids who have have a common background of learning how to kill people get violent isn't exactly shocking. The 63 version is very faithful to the book.

Guest Gary C Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 '63. Pretty sure every (white) British 12-year old is made to watch the '63 version.

pylonbitch Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 lol. the remix sucks dirty underwear. the original matches the austere, brutal quality of the book without sensationalism, or indeed an americanised cast.

Guest MortstoX Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) 1963 it is then. Thanks guys. Except for the spoiler, mr ET. It seems like all of my friends have read the book or seen the movie in school. Perhaps I was in the mong... I mean "special class" that day.
