- Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines is a 1965 British epic period comedy film that satirizes the early years of aviation. The film was directed and co-written by Ken Annakin, produced by Stan Margulies, and distributed by 20th Century Fox. The movie stars an international ensemble cast, including Stuart Whitman, Sarah Miles, Robert Morley, Terry-Thomas, James Fox, Red Skelton, Benny Hill, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Gert Fröbe and Alberto Sordi.
The fictional account is set in 1910 when English press magnate Lord Rawnsley offers £10,000 (equivalent to over £1,000,000 in 2023) to the winner of the Daily Post air race from London to Paris to prove that Britain must not only rules the waves, but must also rule the skies. The film’s plot revolves around the race and the various aviators who participate in it.
This film is dedicated to the men and women who created the film and shows many previously unseen images during its production
Thank you for the wonderful video of a really fun movie!
What a timeless kind of humour. I watched it myself, then with my child, and twenty five years later with my grandson. They all had fun watching it. Great !
I feel very pleased to see these images. It was a great movie, fortunately made in a time without computer images. If it was made today, with all that computer made fake sequences, it would be nasty.
Re> "It was a great movie".
Sorry, but I must disagree, Sir! It still is a great movie! I take issue with your slur and demand satisfaction. Will balloons and blunderbusses suit you?
@@Kimdino1 But only if German pickelhelmets are used.....lol
My favourite film music and song
Oberst Manfred Von Holstein ( Gerd Froebe) war wunderbar !!! 😅

One of the wacky vehicle comedy movies made in the 60's, the other being The Great Race.
