When I was living in Burgundy on an hotel barge ( long story ) in 1993, I had a copy of B of B sent over.
The French chef, then 24, and a mild aircraft enthusiast, was amazed,
" Ze German aircraft, zey come in so low, ze ----ing b----ds !"
He was also amazed because he'd never heard of it - not the film, the actual event !!!
It's a pity Neville Shute's books haven't been filmed properly, though I think 'The Way To The Stars' is close in empathy.
Worst for me has to be 'Firefox', I went to see that with an instrumentation chum, and we both came out and said " we actually paid to watch that ! " At least Airport-the Concorde was funny.
