The Flight of the Phoenix (1965)
Country: US
Technical: col 149m
Director: Robert Aldrich
Cast: James Stewart, Richard Attenborough, Hardy Kruger, Peter Finch, Ernest Borgnine, Ian Bannen
Synopsis:
When their cargo plane crashlands in the Sahara, the all-male crew and passengers must eke out their supply of food and water while one of them builds a new aircraft from the wreckage.
Review:
You know you are in for the long haul with this one, but the cast is great and they certainly earned their bread filming in the California desert all those weeks. Customary dramatics and heroics stake out the intervening tedium, but it is a handsome production of its day.
