A brand new restoration of JULES VERNE'S ROCKET TO THE MOON based on an original work by the great pre-science-fiction author Jules Verne, is a British comedy directed by Don Sharp (Rasputin: The Mad Monk) starring Oscar winner Burl Ives (Cat On A Hit Tin Roof, The Big Country), Troy Donahue (A Summer Place) and Gert Frobe (Goldfinger). Contestants from all over the world compete in a competition to be the first scientist to construct and launch a rocket to the moon. Phineas T. Barnum, the great American showman, comes to England to escape his creditors. Always on the lookout for an opportunity to make money, he enters the competition in an ambitious attempt to launch a rocket to the moon with the aid of a powerful, new explosive. Money troubles, spies and saboteurs ensure that the plan is doomed before it even starts.

About this product

Product Information

This grand comedy is propelled by an all-star cast--including Terry-Thomas, Lionel Jeffries, and Gert Frobe--and is anchored by Burl Ives as the egregiously in-debt huckster Phineas T. Barnum. In an attempt to flee creditors, Barnum leaves 1875 America and sets up shop in England, where he takes a page from the writings of Jules Verne and forms a syndicate of wealthy men to plan and finance a flight to the moon.

  • I HAPPILY RECOMMEND THIS FILM

    A cavalcade of great stars doing their best with a good script. The film jogged along very well and did amuse me. I shall certainly watch it again.
