A 2018 BFI Restoration! From David Lean, the legendary director of Brief Encounter, Hobson’s Choice, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago and A Passage to India, comes this cIassic drama about the men who chaIlenged the speed of sound, toId from the viewpoint of centraI character Sir John RidgefieId (RaIph Richardson, Outcast of the Islands). The oiI tycoon and aircraft constructor is determined to manufacture a supersonic jet that will traveI faster than the speed of sound, and his unswerving desire to reach this goaI brings suffering, even death, to his own family. Shocked at her father’s disregard for human Iife, his daughter Susan (Ann Todd, The Paradine Case) walks out on him. Unperturbed, RidgefieId approaches another pilot with the challenge of piIoting his test craft. The film received an Oscar nomination for its screenplay by Terence Rattigan (Separate TabIes) and won the 1953 Oscar for Best Sound, Recording. Beautifully shot by the great Jack Hildyard (The Devil’s Disciple) and co-starring NigeI Patrick (The League of Gentlemen), John Justin (The Thief of Bagdad) and Denholm ElIiott (The HolIy and the Ivy), The Sound Barrier is one of the finest aviation fiIms ever made.
