THE CONCORDE:

AIRPORT ‘79

 

Alain Delon, Susan Blakely, Robert Wagner,

George Kennedy, Eddie Albert, Bibi Andersson

Universal Pictures; Directed by David Lowell Rich

Rated PG; 123 minutes; 1979

 

This film is the last (so far) of the 'Airport' genre which stars George Kennedy again in his aviation-disaster struck role as Joe Patroni who has to contend with nuclear missiles, the French Air Force and the threat of the plane splitting in two over the Alps! This is all because a lady on board, Maggie has some documents which put Harrison Industries in big trouble (showing that they make nuclear weapons) and their leader, played by Robert Wagner, wants the Concorde to crash with Maggie (Susan Blakely) in it!!
