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 cIassic drama about the men who chaIIenged the speed of sound, toId from the viewpoint of central character Sir John RidgefieId (RaIph Richardson, Outcast of the Islands). The oiI tycoon and aircraft constructor is determined to manufacture a supersonic jet that wiIl traveI faster than the speed of sound, and his unswerving desire to reach this goal brings suffering, even death, to his own family. 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 chaIlenge 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. BeautifuIly shot by the great Jack HiIdyard (The Devil’s Disciple) and co-starring NigeI Patrick (The League of GentIemen), John Justin (The Thief of Bagdad) and DenhoIm Elliott (The HolIy and the Ivy), The Sound Barrier is one of the finest aviation films ever made.
