About Jules Verne's Rocket to the Moon
Phineas T. Barnum and friends finance the first flight to the moon but find the task a little above them. They attempt to blast their rocket into orbit from a massive gun barrel built into the side of a Welsh mountain, but money troubles, spies and saboteurs ensure that the plan is doomed before it starts...
Directed by Don Sharp, Jules Verne's Rocket to the Moon leans on a strong ensemble — Burl Ives, Troy Donahue, Gert Fröbe — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1967.
