Out Of The Clouds - Limited Edition (BLU-RAY)

From director Basil Dearden and producer Michael Relph (Saraband for Dead Lovers, The Gentle Gunman) comes Out of the Clouds, a star-studded adventure of the burgeoning jet age from Ealing Studios. A series of stories unfolds over twenty-four hours in a bustling airport: pilot and gambler Gus (Anthony Steel, Another Man’s Poison) finds himself involved in a smuggling ring; duty officer Nick (Robert Beatty, The Gentle Gunman) vies for the attentions of attractive stewardess Penny (Eunice Grayson, Dr. No); and American engineer Bill (David Knight, The Young Lovers), falls for Leah (Margo Lorenz), a young woman en route to marry her fiancé. With a screenplay co-written by documentary pioneer John Eldrige (Waverley Steps), Out of the Clouds was partly filmed at the then-rapidly expanding London Airport (now known as Heathrow), and boasts a level of realism thanks to technical assistance received from leading airlines and the Ministry of Transport.
