Green Mansions (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Green Mansions is the title of an American motion picture that was produced in 1959 and directed by Mel Ferrer. Based upon the 1904 novel Green Mansions by William Henry Hudson, the film starred Audrey Hepburn (who at the time was married to Ferrer) as Rima, a jungle girl who falls in love with a traveller played by Anthony Perkins.
The film was intended to be the first of several projects directed by Ferrer and starring his wife, but ultimately this was the only such film released. It was one of the few critical and box office failures of Hepburn's early career.
Also appearing in the film were Lee J. Cobb, Sessue Hayakawa and Henry Silva. The score was by Heitor Villa-Lobos and Bronislaw Kaper.
