Based on Arthur Hailey’s best-selling novel, this is the granddaddy of disaster movies, starring Oscar®-winner Burt Lancaster as a harried airport manager facing an imminent blizzard, spineless bureaucrats and a mad bomber. Pilot Dean Martin’s flight to Rome carries a passenger (Van Heflin) who has no intention of crossing the Atlantic alive — and he plans to take the rest of the plane down with him! Screen legend Helen Hays won an Academy Award® for her performance.
