    When the astronauts come up upon the martian lady that is lying down passed out from a fall, the martian lady is my grandmother Billie Lane. This is the only sci-fi she worked in. Most of the 100's of movies she worked in she was either in a dancing scene, as in chorus girl, gypsy dancers. She also did stunts, like riding double on horseback where she was actually backwards on the horse! My grandma was the coolest!

    Little did they know at the time of filming in 1950 that we would not only have conquered the Moon 19 years later but we will have landed on Mars 100 years later. Two of my favourite actors, Hugh O'Brian who made his mark in the 1955 television series Wyatt Earp and Lloyd Bridges who also made his mark in the 1958 television series Sea Hunt . Loved watching these shows in the afternoon when I got home from school. I don't think Australian audiences got to see these shows until a few years after their release in America. I was 9 in 1959.

    shown on television at that time & was almost like going to the movies for free! I liked it so much that I
    have my own copy, but wish that it was colorized! It adds a whole new dimension to the film! Great cast, too!

      I find this one in particular impressive. 1950: this was before man made satellites and already a lot of the elements of actual space flight are touched on. The military style garb of the astronauts makes sense for the time. This is actually more interesting than some present day space travel movies, especially considering how much they got right back in 1950. I honestly didn't expect the movie to be this good, but damn.

    • @Manorainjan

      What's the difference? Todays so called Sci Fi movies are also only made to entertain and not to teach. They contain all kinds of "magical" elements that are presented as science, like time travel, beaming, warp speed, parallel universes and "the force". It's all fairy tales.

      @@abdul-kabiralegbe5660 I agree, even the design of the Rocketship looks more similar to Elons Starship. Mybe he has seen this film, but decided to name his Rocketship as Starship to avoid problems with patenting the name ;-)
      The start seqence was very convincing with the flames straight down, not awkward like the bended flames in flash Gordon Films ;-)
      b.t.w. to acheive flames straight down you simply have to rotate the rocket model by 180 degree so that its flame gose up, and of corse you have to rotate the camera the same angle to make it look like it stands up right in the film. They did that well, and that simple method did almost nobody else well, for some decades!

    This is my "holy grail" of sci-fi. The sound track is classic 50's theramin. The red tint on the original Mars sequences is pure genius on a budget. The destroyed Martian artifacts and the close-up of the incredibly erotic Martian Girl will stay with me forever. This little gem was a Lippert Production - They also produced The Lost Continent in '51 which had green tint added to the b&w. This a visually stunning version. Than you for the post.

    A) Make sure you hold your press briefing 70 minutes before takeoff to allow the crew time to go to the local pub for one last meal and some drinks.
    2) Only equip the ship with short wave radio because you won't need to talk to anyone after your 1/2 way to the moon.
    2a) Meteor showers are NOISY so pack ear plugs.

    Thus was made after the bigger budged Destination Moon started production so this was a fast production and was done and released first to theaters first making it the first space travel film to start the golden age of science fiction. This has excellent photography by the great K. Stress, plus a wonderful score by classic composer whose name I forgot who compose the classic Grand Cayon suite. Very good acting with actors beginning their careers . The down side is some of the.dialog is sexist. The massage is very good about nuclear war and a very surprising ending.this holds up better then the bigger budget Destination Moon.

    • @k1productions87

    In all these older space movies they got stuff wrong:
    1. Some tech advisor is told to get a prop for commo, so buys high end receiver ( which he takes home afterward!). They plug mic into earphone jack and talk to earth. It has no transmit capability! All radio guys in audience are laughing.
    2. Crew walks in cabin, usually without freefall effects.
    3. Radio again, no time delay for radio going back to earth (a few seconds are reality , each way. To Mars it varies with Mars / Earth distance, but several minutes each way at min).
    4. Most " space creatures are eith monsters or gorgeous girls in mini skirts long for earthmen!
    5. No space suits, dressed in WW2 pilot jackets.

    • @k1productions87
      @k1productions87 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Give "Destination Moon" a try. Its from the same era, but it addresses most of those points.
      1. I can't speak for, as I am not an expert on radio, but 2. they not only show a crewman floating, but spend the rest of the trip in magnet boots, with a set that tilts so they can appear to be walking on walls and so forth. 3. they directly reference the radio delay when they reach the Moon. 4. no space creatures of any kind. 5. proper space suits
      Also, they get the moonscape fairly accurate for 1950, and even take the 1/6th Lunar Gravity into account.

    This movie contained a sequence showing the consequences of atomic war on Mars, and how it had destroyed the once advanced Martian civilization. This is one of the first times a movie showed the dangers of atomic war, and might have actually been the first.

    In the 1970s there were a few guys in California who bought up a lot of 16mm prints of this film. They shot new footage for it. They made a miniature model of the ship. They did a film of the ship taking off. They dressed as the crew and shot a scene in perspective of the crew leaving the ship on mars.
    This was issued on VHS. I have it somewhere. Yet, I’ve never seen it online. Anyone know about this?

    We showed this movie at my dad's theater in 1950. The movie was in black and white, but the scenes that represented the surface of Mars were shot in Sepia-tone, which was a cheap alternative to color. A lot of western movies, like those with Gene Autry were shot in Sepia-tone and were just boring.

    • @k1productions87
      @k1productions87 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Actually, you do. The Apollo Lunar Module would be at something like 10% thrust before the final touchdown. The way RXM turns is complete bollocks, but high thrust to kill your velocity, then slowly reduce in the final leg, or you risk flying right back up again.
