Chance of a Lifetime (1950): The workers in a small plough factory take over the firm, but when a large order falls through, the old management come back to help out.
Genevieve (1953): Two friends race their vintage cars on the annual London to Brighton rally. But once they place a 'friendly' wager on who will win the race the competitive juices start flowing! Genevieve is the name of one of the cars, which, like her competitor, runs into one problem after another.
A Night to Remember (1958): Based on the best selling book by Walter Lord, this is the true story of the R.M.S. Titanic which struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage from Europe to New York in 1912.
The Galloping Major (1951): An elderly pet shop owner who sets up a scheme to buy "Montana Mist," a race horse who promises to finish in the money. When the animals are switched at an auction, his lifelong dream comes crashing down - unless the old glue horse he has purchased turns out to be more than meets the eye.
North West Frontier (1959): Captain Scott (More) is sent by the British Governor in India to rescue a five year old Hindu prince and his American governess (Bacall) when a rebellion breaks out among the tribesmen. Pursued by the abductors, the trio commandeer a derelict steam train to take them 300 miles through the mountains to safety...
Reach for the Sky (1956): A story of one man's indomitable courage and endurance. As a young sports-loving Pilot Officer, Douglas Bader loses both legs in a flying accident. Not only does he overcome his devastating disability; he goes on to become a Battle of Britain ace. Eventually Bader is shot down and imprisoned in Germany.
In 1945 when three hundred aircraft fly in triumph over London led by a solitary Spitfire, the honour of leading the fly-past goes to Douglas Bader. This is the story of one of the few to whom so many owed so much.
