It was on television, and my mother allowed me, a mere lad of 8 or 9, to stay up way past my bedtime to see the end. She told me that I would be asleep before it was over, but she was wrong. The farther they traveled the more excited I became. Though I was distinctly disappointed that they never went to Africa, the film piqued my imagination. Here werescenes from all over the world, adventure and suspense all rolled into one. What a great show. At the time, I didn't realize how celebrated it was. I didn't know that it had won five Oscars or that it did good business at the box office. I just know that I wanted to see what was going to happen next. Now Warner Brothers has released this critically acclaimed and popular film in a two disc special edition. How does the movie stay up after all these years? Based on a novel by Jules Verne, the movie is set in 1872 and features Phileas Fogg (David Niven) as a rich, eccentric, British gentleman who lives his life by the clock. He has his breakfast at precisely 8:24 every morning and h Around the World in 80 Days 19566.3 64 6.7 125 6.6 79 6.1 88 The Prince and the Showgirl 1957 6.6 88 5.8 42 5.8 27 6.7 120 |
