Airport scales the lofty heights
I recently watched “Airport” on TCM. It was the first time I had seen it in its original widescreen format since it came out in 1970. I was surprised at how well it has held up with the passage of time. Although there have been disaster movies from the beginning of cinema in the late 19th century and one that dealt specifically with an airplane in danger (“The High and the Mighty”), this was the film that launched the modern disaster craze that produced “The Towering Inferno,” “The Poseidon Adventure,” and countless others including “The Day After Tomorrow.” The hilarious spoof “Airplane” which poked fun at the clichés and pretentiousness of the films did much to discredit the genre until recently.

“Airport” was based on the popular best seller by Arthur Hailey. Although over two hours long, the movie moves and the viewer never gets bored. The stellar cast does an exceptional job with a standout performance by the legendary Helen Hayes. The ending is both happy and sad. So it does not cop out on several key themes of the story. Many of the roles, such as George Kennedy’s Joe Patroni, are played lightly and this adds zest to the performances. When the script begins to get syrupy a new element of emergency is thrown in to pick it up and go.

Forget all the cliché-ridden disaster flicks you have seen since “Airport.” You will be entertained and not feel cheated when the closing credits appear.

An “on-set” Bias actor review.
Being the only child on the plane, I can speak from first hand experience. This movie was the start of the entire disaster craze. I have many fond memories of kicking it with Jacqueline Bisset between takes and watching the dailies of the bomb explosion scene. Dean Martin was pretty much enamored with himself through the entire shoot. The doting women on the set didn’t help matters. I had my own trailer right next to David Cassidy (Partridge Family Fame/Teen Idol). Also Planet of the Apes was shooting at the same time as Airport. I watched Universal Studios evolve into it’s first tours. The evolution of a theme park was taking place right before my eyes. What glorious times these were. Truly fond memories working with some of the greatest actors of their time. Burt Lancaster, Helen Hayes, George Kennedy, Van Heflin, Maureen Stapleton and of course Jacqueline Bisset. Forget about it.

No other movie has spawned so many sequels and spoofs as this one did. 10 Academy nominations including best picture can’t be wrong. Times have not changed that much. Good is good.

I suspect that one day, I will be the only surviving cast member since I was only five years old when we did this shoot. I highly recommend this movie, but then again…. I might be biased.
