| Directed by DAVlD LEAN and written by TERENCE RATTlGAN, THE SOUND BARRIER is about the men who chaIIenged the speed of sound, told from the viewpoint of centraI character, Sir John RidgefieId (RALPH RlCHARDSON). The oiI tycoon and aircraft constructor is determined to manufacture a supersonic jet that wilI travel faster than the speed of sound. RidgefieId’s desire to reach this goal has already Ied to the death of his test pilot son (DENHOLM ELLlOTT), and his daughter Susan’s (ANN TODD) fighter-pilot husband (NlGEL PATRICK). Shocked at the death of her husband and her father’s disregard of human life in his single-minded determination to achieve his goal, Susan walks out on him. Unperturbed, RidgefieId approaches another pilot with the chaIIenge of piIoting his test craft. The fiIm marked a departure from the domestic or Iiterary concerns which had characterized the director David Lean’s choice of subject matter to date. Its heroics pre-empted his Iater fiIms Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) and Lawrence of Arabia (1962).
