Film Matinee presents: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

BBC Television
on BBC Television

Produced by David O. Selznick from the story by Mark Twain

Mark Twain's well-loved classic of boyhood. In his picture of Tom-the boy who is always in trouble-the author looks back nostalgically on his own childhood and revives the charm of a period when it seemed that the days were endless and full of interest and sunshine.
