Jungle Book

Rudyard Kipling's classic jungle adventure tells the story of Mowgli (Sabu), a boy raised in the jungle by wolves. One day after being chased by his enemy shere khan the tiger, Mowgli comes across an Indian village and is curious to explore. Eventually he is accepted but when three greedy villagers discover that he knows where there is hidden treasure in a ruined temple the men try to turn the rest of the village against him whilst they go after the treasure. Korda's lavish production with exotic scenery and evocative music score by Miklos Rozsa is still considered by many to be the best adaptation of Kipling's classic.
