Journey to the Center of the Earth (1959)

A professor and his colleagues follow an explorer's trail down an extinct Icelandic volcano to the earth's center.

Dir: Henry Levin Cast:  Pat Boone , James Mason , Arlene Dahl .
C- 129 min, TV-G , CC
CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: Henry Levin. James Mason, Pat Boone, Arlene Dahl, Diane Baker, Thayer David, Alan Napier. Entertaining, old-fashioned fantasy-adventure, from Jules Verne's story of daring expedition headed by Mason; long in telling, with silly digressions, but generally fun. Remade for TV in 1999, and as WHERE TIME BEGAN. Best enjoyed in CinemaScope.

A falling star marries the newcomer he's helping reach the top.

C- 176 min, TV-PG , CC
CLOSE LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

D: George Cukor. Judy Garland, James Mason, Charles Bickford, Jack Carson, Tom Noonan. Powerful semi-musical remake of the 1937 classic, with Garland and Mason at their peaks as doomed Hollywood star couple, she on the way up, he down. Incisive script by Moss Hart; great Harold Arlen-Ira Gershwin songs include spellbinding "The Man That Got Away" and the show stopping "Born in a Trunk" sequence by Leonard Gershe. Badly cut to 154m. after premiere engagements of 181m.; restored in 1983 to present length using still photos to cover missing bits of footage. CinemaScope.
