    James Stewart was born to play people like Mr Honey. This is maybe the most Jimmy Stewart he got, full aspergers syndrome. Beautiful work, with wonderful Marlene Dietrich and Glynis Johns to keep him company.

      Stewart and Johns were husband and wife in Dear Brigitte.

    Yes, it is 70+ yrs old but it remains one of my favorite Jimmy Stewart films (Jack Hawkins and Glynis Johns certainly don’t hurt!). It combines airplane technology with the dramatic tension of the absentminded professor who’s convinced a disaster is imminent.
    But…hey, it’s Jimmy Stewart! I’d watch him describe different colors of paint chips.

    Enjoyed this very much! Stewart laying it on a bit thick with the nerd autistic engineer act......however the script was tragically ahead of its time. Fatigue failure was to doom a number of the British Comet airliners before they resolved it.......not so long after the film was released. Lovely and different story.

      Considering they had no video or rewind button, no computer editing or cgi, I think it's amazing that their shooting was seamless and the continuity excellent when they had no idea how a shot would turn out until it was in the editing suite/cutting room and all spliced back together after the film was developed in a dark room. Many modern day films are quite shoddy by comparison with shaky camera work reminding us all the time there's a room full of crew behind the lens. I find these old movies quite immersive.

    I'm a big Jimmy Stewart fan, and, as a kid in the 1960's in the Los Angeles area TV market I watched this movie every time it was on. I thought it was great. Now, in 2024, I must say this movie is awful. Beyond belief bad. Bad script, bad everything. The movie just fails to deliver really good drama. Mr. Stewart should have been a pilot of the plane and had to deal with the design engineers back at the factory. I cringe at the acting and they all must have known this script was not good and this was just an easy payday for everyone. Sorry Mr. Stewart, all your other movies are fantastic!!!!
