    Embark on an amazing adventure awash with intrigue over land and sea, now on Disney DVD for the first time! Hayley Mills stars as fearless Mary Grant, whose only clue to her missing father -- a sea captain -- is a mysterious message in a bottle. One clue leads to a thousand thrills when Mary, her brother, and their fellow searchers must brave earthquakes, fire, flood, and even a giant condor on their perilous rescue mission. Maurice Chevalier, George Sanders, and Wilfrid Hyde-White also star in this spectacular fantasy-adventure based on celebrated novelist Jules Verne's popular book. Brimming with special effects, this is your passport to surefire family fun!

    Description of In Search of the Castaways:
    In Search of the Castaways was Hayley Mills's third feature for Disney, an agreeable adventure--loosely based on a Jules Verne story--with enough derring-do to make kids happy and with the right touch of self-conscious silliness to keep adults smiling. Mills plays Mary Grant, a missing freighter captain's daughter convinced her father is still alive somewhere in Earth's southern hemisphere. With the help of her brother (Keith Hamshire) and a veteran seaman (an extremely unlikely if charming Maurice Chevalier), Mary convinces a shipping magnate, Lord Glenarvan (Wilfrid Hyde-White), to set sail and find the missing Captain Grant. The team survives freezing weather, avalanches, a menacing condor, an active volcano, Maori captors, and a plot by a slick George Sanders to steal a ship. Meanwhile, Mary and Glenarvan's rakish son, John (Michael Anderson Jr.), engage in flirtatious feuding. The many memorable action sequences are wildly improbable (all the more so watching the nonchalant Chevalier have a go at Indiana Jones-like heroics) and liberally employ old-fashioned process shots, mattes, paintings, and other pre-digital special effects. The incomparable Hyde-White looks as if he's having fun alternately harrumphing and encouraging good old British resolve, while Sanders effortlessly portrays, for the umpteenth time, his brand of enchanting villainy. Directed by Robert Stevenson (Mary Poppins). In Search of the Castaways is presented here in its original, full-screen format. --Tom Keogh

    Great Stuff!! 5 Star Review
    2008-08-29 - My girlfriend loves this movie and I was so glad I could easily find it on DVD on Amazon! Thanks so much...easy to find and great quality!!

    Classic Disney 4 Star Review
    2008-08-29 - This has always been one of my favorite Disney movies. I believe it is a classic that should be in everyone's library, but that is me. The acting and special effects are a little cheesy by today's standards, but it reminds me of simpler times when I was a kid.

    Castaways 5 Star Review
    2008-06-10 - In Search of the Castaways
    I'm a big fan of Hayley Mills and Maurice Chevalier. This is family entertainment. A couple of excitable moments. But this is a G rated film and no one is hurt -- they actually try to insert a little humor. It was nice to sit down and watch a movie and actually come away smiling.

    Good Family Fun 4 Star Review
