No Highway In The Sky

Excellent suspense drama
This Fox Cinema Archive DVD is a clear beautiful print. The 1951 drama has an excellent cast headed by a nerve-wracking James Stewart and a very glamorous Marlene Dietrich. There are a lot of British actors in supporting roles who don't get screen credit. It's a good film that holds your interest from beginning to end.

No Highway in the Sky
This 1951 vintage movie starring James Stewart and the gorgeous Marlene Dietrich and the pretty Glynis Johns
highlights the drama and suspense associated with a virtually new passenger aircraft whose reliability factor
may cost thousands of lives. Stewart, an aeronautical engineer, surmises that the plane's tail section will
fall off after 1440 hours of flight time due to metal fatigue. His determination to prove his theory propels
the recognition of aircraft design and safety to the forefront in this thoughtful drama.

A Favorite Film
This and Field of Dreams are my two favorite films of all time. Feel good movies without a bit of smaltz. Hope it comes to DVD soon.
