Reply to "Ben's Buddies"

By chance I discovered this very strange clip. It's about 7 minutes long so is only part of the complete film. Apart from the music by Greig and some voice over, it's a silent version of Ibsen's Peer Gynt. It was directed by a 21 year old called David Bradley. What makes this of note is that it is Charlton Heston's film debut at the age of 17. He doesn't speak, but is certainly recognisable. The film was made in 1941, and his next film wasn't until 1950.
