Campbell’s Kingdom (1957)

Campbell’s Kingdom Blu-ray from Network and The British Film. Features Dirk Bogarde.

Bruce Campbell, a young Englishman recently diagnosed with a terminal illness, travels to the Canadian Rockies to claim an unexpected inheritance of land from his grandfather. Determined to prove the old man’s conviction that there is oil in his ‘Kingdom’, Bruce resolves to devote his final months to vindicating the claim, meeting determined and unscrupulous opposition from almost everyone in the valley…

Dirk Bogarde gives an intense performance as a young man who refuses to allow a family dream to die, in this powerful adaptation of Hammond Innes’ best-selling novel.

Scripted by BAFTA winner Robin Estridge and featuring an outstanding supporting cast including Zulu legend Stanley Baker, Campbell’s Kingdom is a moving story of courage, boasting one of cinema’s most thrilling and spectacular climaxes. This classic film is featured in a High Definition transfer made from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
