Description

Take a nonstop flight with an all-star cast to a world of tension-filled human drama in this trend-setting box office blockbuster. Based on Arthur Hailey's runaway bestseller, the emotion-charged adventure stars Burt Lancaster as the manager of a glamorous international airport who must juggle personal crises with professional responsibilities as he attempts to keep his blizzard torn facility open to rescue a bomb-damaged jetliner. The lavish Ross Hunter production co-stars a veritable Who's Who of Hollywood's most glittering personalities including Dean Martin, Jean Seberg, Jacqueline Bisset, George Kennedy, Van Heflin, Maureen Stapleton, Lloyd Nolan and Helen Hayes in the role that won her a second OscarĀ®. The often imitated but never duplicated movie milestone remains a gripping trip from suspenseful take-off to senses-shattering landing.

    Airport was the first movie to capture the tension of a real disaster movie involving the pearls of air travel, it was such a great movie that Hollywood have rehashed it to death! But this black comedy is still the best of the lot! In truth this classic brings back memories of a happier time. It used to be on tv every Christmas for the last 30 years, and I've probably watched it on every occasion. It's worth a hire at least, a genuine classic!!!
