That was a film based on a story by Jules Verne that starred George Sanders and Maurice Chevalier from 1962. It's been a while since I've seen it, but it sounds like the one. ....Of course, at MY age, everything sounds like "THE" one... :lol:

"Zarkov to Flash Gordon....Come in Flash!" Posts: 8,932 Group: Members Member #171 Joined: February 4, 2007	Wow. This one hurt pulling it out of my files waaaay in the back of my head. The movie is Island at the Top of the World from 1974, starring soon-to be host (back THEN) of the newly launched "Good Morning America", David Hartman. Phew I saw that one only once when it first came out (and haven't seen it since--but not because I didn't like it or that it was bad--which it really wasn't--but because it never came around on my stations out here...EVER!!) and improperly filed it in with all the other "lost world" movies--EXCEPT The Lost World, itself (go figure)and Journey to the Center of the Earth. Maltin gave it two and 1/2 stars, but then, what does he know?? He's a critic and he's paid to critique, NOT to have guilty pleasures of a movie that tries, but fails to make the grade, yet is STILL entertaining in a juvenile way that captures the imagination of us all. Course I never cared much of Hartman as an actor. I always thought he was too stiff and lacked emotion and expression. So...is THIS guess right, Coppy??

Posts: 8,932 Group: Members Member #171 Joined: February 4, 2007	You know what's dumb on my part, is that on my piece of crap computer, I can't read the entire title of some of these threads, plus it doesn't display ALL the posts.--I don't know why.... but I'm using a friend's computer right now, and can see the entire title, and all the posts, and now I don't feel so smart!! Damn, 'puters!! This one's as bad as my second ex-wife!! And THAT's one big pain in the system!! Gotta get a new one before I get a bad rep...not that I DON'T have one already!! :lol:

It makes you walk around in a Bat-suit, doesn't it? And Alfred imbibes enough to blind himself to put up with your insanity.
