So, 'Atlantis' from '83 is this quirky little TV movie that really captures that offbeat charm of the era. Goff and Lytton, the leads, are just two guys dreaming about their own canal boat adventures. The humor is light, but there's an underlying sense of longing and reality check that resonates. The pacing is relaxed, allowing moments to breathe, which is perfect for a story like this. The boatyard setting, especially with the dilapidated Atlantis, gives it this rustic feel that’s kind of nostalgic. The performances, while not over the top, have this endearing quality that makes you root for them. It’s a unique take on friendship and aspiration, and the practical effects—whatever they could muster—add to its charm. It’s a hidden gem, for sure.
