Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

John Wayne personally produced many of his '50s films, which is why some of them have languished in corporate limbo following his death. The High and the Mighty was one of his most popular vehicles (no pun intended). This long, necessarily sedentary drama aboard an endangered airliner is a CinemaScope bridge between 1932's Grand Hotel and 1970s disaster movies. Despite Wayne's iconic presence as a pilot--now copilot--who survived the plane crash that wiped out his family, it's an ensemble movie with an impressive cast: Robert Stack sharing the cockpit, Oscar® nominees Claire Trevor and Jan Sterling, Laraine Day, Robert Newton, Paul Kelly, John Qualen, Regis Toomey, the ubiquitous Paul Fix, and director William A. Wellman's good-luck character actor Douglas Fowley. Dimitri Tiomkin's score won the Oscar, though the fondly remembered theme song isn't as prominent as you'd expect. Wings veteran William H. Clothier shot the aerial footage. --Richard T. Jameson

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as I remembered it, April 5 2006

This review is from: The High and the Mighty (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) (DVD)
I was excited to learn that 'The High and the Mighty' had been restored and remastered - what a wonderful job they did with it.
I remember it when it was released in 1954 - a memorable film, John Wayne was wonderful in it and had a good supporting cast.
I know I tried to get a copy of this film over 25 years ago and it wasn't available - it was well worth the wait.
