I just finished (over two days) watching the 1950 Disney movie version of "Treasure Island." What a fantastic, entertaining film - especially for boys. As usual, I borrowed the DVD from the local library (for free). Lots of colorful scenary, adventure, and swashbuckling. Contains old fashioned "movie violence." But the bond between Jim and Long John Silver was touching. I shed a tear at the end. One of these days I will have to read the book. There is also supposed to be a good 1934 movie version by the director of the "Wizard of Oz" (Victor Fleming).
