Airport  — 4K 09/13/25

The blizzard looks real and the big stars are flashy, but Ross Hunter’s 70mm ode to supermarket best sellers still plays like a TV movie. Both airport manager Burt Lancaster and pilot Dean Martin are straying from their marriages, with Jean Seberg (sigh!) and Jacqueline Bisset (wow!). But the direction dotes on cute geriatric stowaway Helen Hayes, mad bomber Van Heflin and crusty facilities troubleshooter George Kennedy. The screenplay sings the praises of American know-how and Boeing aircraft in particular. The biggest trauma for today’s audience is looking back at 1970’s wholesome in-flight meals and the spacious seating in coach! On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics.
