Around The World In Eighty Days (Special Edition)
Stars: David Niven, Robert Newton, Shirley Maclaine, Charles Boyer, John Carradine, Noel Coward, Hermione Gingold, Trevor HowardDirector: Michael Anderson
Summary: An imperturbable English gentleman attempts to completely circumnavigate the world in eighty days, in order to win a large wager. Set in over one hundred locations.
David Niven is perfect as the imperturbable Victorian English gentleman Phileas Fogg who attempts to win a bet by circumnavigating the globe in just eighty days. The Jules Verne story on a truly cinematic and epic scale. Utilising 140 studio sets, 44 cameo appearances by Hollywood players, 8,552 animals, 68,894 extras, 74,685 costumes, a Victor Young score, and S.J. Perelman among the writers guarantee delightful family fare. The beginning of the film features a prologue by Edward R. Murrow, the esteemed television journalist, and features the first film to be based on a Jules Verne novel, Georges Melies's A TRIP TO THE MOON from 1902. A veritable pageant, with similar vim, humour and class acting as IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD, but with an esteemed production of period detail and exotic locations.
Winner of five Academy Awards for Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Music, Best Adapted Screenplay and beating THE KING & I and THE TEN COMMANDMENTS for the best picture award!
