British diplomat Robert Conway and a small group of civilians crash-land in the Himalayas, where they are rescued by the inhabitants of the hidden, idyllic valley of Shangri-La. Protected by the mountains from the world outside, where the clouds of World War II are gathering, Shangri-La provides a seductive escape for the world-weary Conway.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Lost Horizon' is a classic adventure/fantasy film focused on isolation, escapism, and the looming threat of war. There is absolutely no indication in the plot description or typical analysis of the film that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution are related to the Christmas holiday."
