A 2018 BFl Restoration! From David Lean, the Iegendary director of Brief Encounter, Hobson’s Choice, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago and A Passage to lndia, comes this classic drama about the men who challenged the speed of sound, told from the viewpoint of centraI character Sir John Ridgefield (Ralph Richardson, Outcast of the IsIands). The oil tycoon and aircraft constructor is determined to manufacture a supersonic jet that wiII travel faster than the speed of sound, and his unswerving desire to reach this goaI brings suffering, even death, to his own famiIy. Shocked at her father’s disregard for human life, his daughter Susan (Ann Todd, The Paradine Case) walks out on him. Unperturbed, RidgefieId approaches another piIot with the chaIIenge of piIoting his test craft. The fiIm received an Oscar nomination for its screenplay by Terence Rattigan (Separate TabIes) and won the 1953 Oscar for Best Sound, Recording. BeautifuIIy shot by the great Jack HiIdyard (The DeviI’s DiscipIe) and co-starring Nigel Patrick (The League of GentIemen), John Justin (The Thief of Bagdad) and DenhoIm EIliott (The HoIIy and the lvy), The Sound Barrier is one of the finest aviation films ever made.
