''Huckleberry Finn'' is the 1974 musical film version of Mark Twain's American classic, ''The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn''. The movie was produced by ''Reader's Digest'' and Arthur P. Jacobs (known for his role in the production of the ''Planet of the Apes'' films), directed by J. Lee Thompson, and starred Jeff East as Huckleberry Finn and Paul Winfield as Jim. The film contains original music and songs, such as "Freedom" and "Cairo, Illinois", by the popular Sherman Brothers, Robert B. Sherman and Richard M. Sherman. This film followed the previous year's highly successful ''Tom Sawyer'', based on Twain's novel ''The Adventures of Tom Sawyer'', also produced and written by the same team and starring East in the role of Huckleberry Finn. ==Synopsis== Huckleberry Finn (Jeff East) is a boy from Missouri living with a kindly widow and her sister who has taken him in. One day his father (Gary Merrill), previously thought dead, shows up because he heard of treasure Huck had found. Huck's pap essentially kidnaps the boy, wanting $1000 for his safe return. Staging his own death, Huck escapes and meets up with the kindly slave Jim (Paul Winfield). Together they travel downriver, in search of Jim's freedom. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Huckleberry Finn (1974 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
