Treasure Island (1990)
Starring: Charlton Heston, Christian Bale
Director: Fraser Clarke Heston
This full-blooded TV adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's
Treasure Island was written, produced and directed by Frasier
Heston. His father, Charlton Heston plays Long John Silver.
Eschewing the cuteness of Wallace Beery and the
unadulterated ham of Robert Newton, Heston plays the
character as written: a cold, crafty, cunning rogue, by turns
charming and deadly, but never to be underestimated. The plot
adheres with utter fidelity to the Stevenson novel, beginning
with innkeeper's son Jim Hawkins (Christian Bale) finding
himself in possession of a treasure map from the doomed
Captain Billy Bones (Oliver Reed). In the company of Dr.
Livesey (Julian Glover) and Squire Trelawny (Richard
Johnson), Jim ships out on the Hispaniola, in search of gold
doubloons and pieces of eight. Hand-picking the crew for this
mission is the ship's one-legged cook Long John Silver, who
fully intends to mutiny, kill the treasure hunters, and claim the
gold for himself. Featured in the cast are Clive Woods as
Captain Smollett, Christopher Lee as Blind Pew, and Nicholas
Amer as addled hermit Ben Gunn. Treasure Island premiered
January 22, 1990, over the TNT cable network.
