''La joven'' — called ''The Young One'' or ''White Trash'' in the United States, released as ''Island of Shame'' in the United Kingdom — is a 1960 film by the Spanish director Luis Buñuel. Produced in Mexico and shot in English with American actors, ''La Joven'' is Buñuel's second and last American film. The film deals with issues of racism and rape against a complex portrayal of two men, each of whom shows both good and evil. The film was entered into the 1960 Cannes Film Festival,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Festival de Cannes: The Young One )〕 and has received highly positive reviews since release. ''The Young One'' is currently available in both Region 1 and Region 2 DVD editions after being out of distribution for many years. ==Synopsis== Based on a short story ("Travelin' Man") by American author Peter Matthiessen, the film tells the story of Traver, a black jazz musician on the run after a white woman has accused him of rape. Such a charge in the South could lead to his being lynched. After stealing a boat to escape, Traver makes his way to an island inhabited by the beekeeper Miller, and Evalyn, the granddaughter of his recently deceased partner. What follows is a struggle between Traver and Miller over guns, resources and the affections of the young Evalyn, who becomes increasingly fascinated by the clarinet-playing Traver. She is disgusted by Miller's advances toward her each night. 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「The Young One」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
