After a screen test of 56 year-old retired stage actor A.E. Anson, Capra decided that he was just right for the part. He made a call to the actor's home, and the housekeeper who answered the phone was told to relay the message to Anson that the part was his. Not long after, the housekeeper called back telling Capra that when Anson heard the news, he had a heart attack and died. Subsequently, Capra offered the part to 58 year-old Henry B. Walthall. He died before shooting began.
All well and good except that Anson died 8 days AFTER Walthall. So this can't be correct as written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimindc (talk • contribs) 02:11, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
Remake reminiscent of Gilligan's Island? I don't think this can be right, although I have never seen G.I. Is there anyone who has seen both who can confirm this please? DavidFarmbrough 12:58 (BST) 6 September 2005
The reason for the editing currently given on the page is a new one on me. I thought it was cut down to fit a double bill after FDR said a certain group of bombers involved in an air raid on Japan "came from Shangri La". Unfortunately, my source isn't handy (it was either in a Halliwell book or on the DVD commentary, which goes deeply into the restoration). Any help would be appreciated. --Enwilson (talk) 20:35, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
The film does not show that Conway found Shangra-la. He sets toward it with bells ringing toward the end with the hope that he does find it but this is a remote hope. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.85.0.47 (talk) 02:28, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
Does the 2013 digital restoration of the film restore its original length? Given the cuts to the film, this should be mentioned.
So I think the external links section should definitely link to the full version of the film on some streaming site.
However I'm not sure if that would be legal concerning the copyright (even though everything else would pretty much be nonsensical).
e.g. this one: http://original.livestream.com/lost_horizon/video?clipId=flv_9054bc92-6394-41d7-8217-3782a6073635

I mean this "The serious financial crisis it created for Columbia Pictures damaged the partnership between Capra and studio head Harry Cohn, as well as the friendship between Capra and Riskin". Page 328 In the book does not mention anything like that DonGuess (talk) 02:10, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
