S'pose one should mention Fate is the Hunter...

But not necessarily to recommend it. Ernest Gann (who wrote the eponymous book, on part of which the film was based) didn't like it, apparently. From what I remember, he had a point.

Warmtoast,
Love the pics. Guess I must have seen S.A.C. before any of the others (Dambusters was released 1956?), and it probably benefited from being in colour. B-36 was a remarkable aeroplane, and the B-47 also appeared.
Jimmy Stewart might have found his role in No Highway a bit tame after that, but more challenging to act?
