Robert Newton is not only THE Long John Silver, he's the guy everyone mimics when they play pirate. They may not remember Newton's name or know anything about him, but it's his swash and buckle we all imitate. And it's the reason we watched this film and the TV series he did around the same time.
AARRRGGGG, what a cool opening. " I'd be most greatful for the return of the blade ". 😊 l agree with previous comments, Robert Newton is the template for all pirate movies that followed. Saw this when I was 7yo. and not since. Thank You for the post. 😊❤😊❤😊
The original Treasure Island was good for it's day when made. This sequel/non-sequel (?) Is so superior that if they were actual pirate ships 54 would blow 34 out of the water. Pun intended .😊😊😊

If you have not seen The Beachcomber (1954 film), check it out. It has an almost 'African Queen' feel about it, and Newton is *superb* in the lead role as The Honourable Ted.
As a young boy, I can remember these movies with Errol Flynn, and the actor of long John silver I’d like these programs I really did and I still do even. I’m quite old now. It brings me back memories of long long ago in my youth. These were awful great actors, it’s so sad that they are gone but their memories live on through their films. I know I will never forget them for the short few years I have left. Thank you for showing this film to me and bring smack my youth when I was a small boy so long ago God bless and protect take well and watch the east winds.
Brilliant to see this again. This time IN COLOUR!!! One of my favourite childhood films in the '60s and certainly the most memorable Long John. Although I must say, he was probably an AMAZING dancer because he swapped legs faster than a fiddler's elbow lol. Oooo, Arrr! Jim Mi Lad!! 😊
This is great but the first time Newton played Long John in 1950 Walt Disney classic with Bobby Driscoll is even better. A stone cold classic. Newton should have won an Oscar for that performance.
This and Treasure Island are some of the best films ever made, taken almost word for word from the Stephensons' books, As a kid I was transfixed to the screen when I went to see Treasure Island, I was there on that beach, the treasure was mine, I went home and made wooden sword and set sail for pirate islands on my solid tyre pushbike with Robert Gascoigne, Ben Gun scared the living bejeebers out of me and still does to this day, if a better film for adults to take their children to the cinema has been made I haven't seen it, and there are not many I haven't seen in that vogue, Mary Poppins to Lawrence of Arabia I've seen them all on the big silver screen with her, had to take someone with me to get in and buy the concessions when the Pearl and Dean intermission came on to change reels, they cant make them like this anymore because the directors and actors arent up to it, they're more concerned about themselves than the paying public nowadays, the result is a conceeted load of cobswallop,
I am missing these whimsical of the old movie. They don't really care about accurate or realistic or anything. All the clothes are theatrical, The setting are grand and actors are there with pure pleasure. They don't have to be accurate or minding about this groups that group or whatever. Movies back then are for pure pleasure and joy!!!
Great comment! Was feeling the same way, while watching. The sets are hokey, plainly fake. The viewer was expected to use the imagination and meet them halfway. The dialogue and characters were supreme.
Excellent show. 👍 Nice re-telling of RLS Treasure Island with Mr. Newton. Superb color and cinematography. 🦜 Great print and acted with great gusto by the cast. Chat was another blast! Film was easily 4 star territory! 🌠🌠🌠🌠 if you missed it me hardees, dont be a landlubber. Catch it on replay! Or walk the plank! 🏴☠Arghhh!
John long silver book is one of our literature book in intermediate school in Sudan at the beging of 1990.teacher was struggle to make us understand ING the story. We were giving attention e pleasure and deep excitation. To take benifit of that story it depend totally to the teacher who has deep vacubulary of English language. Very rare to find dictunary and off course no movies at that time.
@@sgabig I guess if your students are making good progress, it would help sustain their interest in learning the language as well as possible. I live in a non-English speaking country, and I've often heard people say their interest in understanding the cultural exports of the English-speaking world (movies, books, music, etc.) was a key reason for them to learn the language. Understanding slangs like those of pirates requires a somewhat advanced knowledge of the language.
Newton invented the perception of a pirate . Oddly as it is , he came from a middle class English family . His early film roles had him speaking like James Mason. He was also related to a member of the Royal Academy.
those of us know the real reason why We love this man. Is because he became a father to Young mister hawkins. He showed What it really meant. To be a strong man. Against the mast. Real man o war style. Also his behavior his mannerism his style. It's something no one can never mimic. From that Clever sparkling his eye has. To his strange terms of phrase. Even to this day I still say "sitty down" And my favorite drink is still brown hard rum Mixed with cold milk. which at the end of the series that came about from this. It Became his drink of choice. I still remember when he tricked that old Fool mendoza Into making a plum duff Cake loaded with gunpowder and rum. And told him To put candles on it. I remember his words.." Well, I hope he doesn't have any of his close family nearby when he Lights it up!"
Fans of Robert Newton may enjoy reading the pages David Niven devoted to him in his autobiographical books ' The Moons a Balloon ', and 'Bring on the empty horses '. An extremely talented, if tragic figure.

Can we just appreciate the subtle and disturbing situation of of being a child being chased by a blind man who is going to kill you? Didn't need any fancy movie effects to instill terror there.
no doubt newton nailed it I would have liked him to have 1 eye though, in his type character it was missing with him rolling 2 good eyes as though he had only 1
just some back ground on the making of treasure Island they filmed it Sydney Australia.suburb called Pagewood where to day stands a shopping centre called East garden i remember the day i stood on the pirate ship at the age of 11 some 69 years ago. i have worked later in my life on more than 200 movie sets on films and tv shows made in sydney there you go all that fun i now miss........
😅 "Hold yer fire!!! 😅 😊😅😂😊😅😂😊😅 "Aaaargh. Sometimes, them what quotes the Bible has less Bible in their hearts than them what don't." No one could ever do John Silver better than Robert Newton. He devised the eternal and quintessential pirate and will forever own that character just as Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce owned Holmes and Watson, just like David Suchet defined and owns Poirot. Some actors have taken fictional characters and made them very real, special, and a lasting part of the literary landscape. Robert Newton crafted very believable characters, forging their strengths and defects into curious or scurrilous characters that will always delight the imagination of period buffs to armchair pirates from John Silver (Treasure Island) to Bill Sykes (Oliver Twist) to Jem Trehearne (Jamaica Inn) Newton had a gift and nack for bringing fiction into vivid focus. His birthday is June 1, 1930. I celebrate every June 1, as Robert Newton Day. 🎉😊🎉

Blind Pew for me
How could this film be taken "word for word from Sephensons' books" when Stevenson didn't write a sequel to Treasure Island?

Why did he kick the door instead of just turning the handle like a clever pirate?
Newton invented the perception of a pirate . Oddly as it is , he came from a middle class English family . His early film roles had him speaking like James Mason. He was also related to a member of the Royal Academy.
Just as Errol Flynn was THE Robin Hood, so Robert Newton will always be THE Long John Silver.
And Blackbeard
