 Amazon.com: Land That Time Forgot (1975) : Video
A lost unknown island in the Antarctic, where dinosaurs still live and time bends, the people trying to survive and then getting trapped.....losing contact with the outside world, possibly for the rest of their lives.
The "Forgot" part of the titles are eloquently staged in "Land" when the submarine steams upriver; and in "People" when the pilot, Hogan, starts to go stir-crazy back at the Amphibian campsite.
Still, you get an indication of how much fun the action-adventures elements are (for this particular genre and this particular time) when the film still gets 4 stars despite the hokey dinosaurs.

In the days of Walt Disney it was decided that the company would never stoop to making sequels to their beloved animated films (Disney felt that it might sap the creativity out of his team to rehash what they'd already accomplished).
Now, isn't this a strange deal: the film was originally shot in a 1.85:1 aspect ratio, yet Disney has decided to fork over a "family friendly" widescreen version of the film.

 Movie Forums - The City of Lost Children
From a conjoined twin who exploits children, to a drunken sideshow flea circus master, to the borg-like henchman of the sinister Krank, these characters come to life and whisk you away for an hour and a half to a dark and dreamy land rich with unique artistry.
That is one word to describe the 1999 dark fairy tale The City of Lost Children by surrealist pair Juenet and Caro, the Belgian directing team that brought us Delicatessen and Amelie (as well as Alien Resurrection, which was a sole effort by Juenet).
One scene sticks in my mind, which starts with the shedding of a single tear, which sets into motion a chain of events that are expertly and artfully filmed in a two minute sequence that is one of the most creative and beautiful scenes I have ever witnessed.

Among the films shown here was Symbol of the Unconquered, a frontier romance in which the lead couple almost doesn't come together because the black hero believes the light-skinned heroine is white.
The film was thought to have been lost, until a print was discovered a few years ago in a Belgian archives.

 walkabout.htm
The film makes a passionate, if rather heavy-handed statement about the ways in which civilisation has impacted on this land to the detriment of all, black and white.
Produced in 1971 "Walkabout" tells the story of a 14 year old girl (young English actress Jenny Agutter) and her six year old brother (played by Lucien John, one of Roeg' s sons) who are lost in the outback after their father attempts to kill them and then commits suicide.
It is amazing that it so often takes an outsider to show us as we really are: "Walkabout" was photographed and directed by an Englishman, Nicholas Roeg which perhaps explains both the loving depiction of the Australian outback and the strong political statements contained in the film.
