On the schooner "Hispaniola" they begin a dangerous journey to the distant island, not realizing that with them went, pretending to be ship's cook, John Silver - a professional pirate with lots of experience. The film is an almost literal adaptation of the novel.—Peter-Patrick76 ([email protected])
