THE FLIGHT OF THE PHOENIX (1965)

Cast

Plot

When a group of disparate characters crash in the merciless desert of the Sahara, it would seem their fate is sealed, but not all of them are so willing to offer up their life to the sands, and so begins a race against time to create from the wreckage a means of escape. Flight of The Phoenix is a classic example of the "they don't make them like that anymore", part boys own adventure, part astute study of human nature in the face of adversity, a gripping story intelligently adapted from Elleston Trevor's novel.
