Product Description:
Let your spirits soar with this lighter-than-air adaptation of Jules Verne's classic tale. A ragtag crew of such unlikely associates as Fabian and Sir Cedric Hardwicke races across uncharted African territory in a unicorn-shaped balloon. Accompanied by Red Buttons as a playboy American reporter the explorers are sidetracked snared and drawn into battle with slaves sneezing sultans and sandstorms. Along the way they meet up with a beautiful missionary (Barbara Eden). And an equally lovely slave girl (Barbara Luna) whom Fabian takes under his wing. With its excellent cast and breathtaking backdrops Five Weeks In A Balloon is a buoyant blend of romance adventure and laughter that adds up to grand family entertainment.

Saw this when I was ten. Great movie. A Jules Verne story and catchy song to boot!

Obviously, this is a very free adaptation of Jules Verne's novel. The story centers around the marvelous balloon invented by Fergusson) played by Sir Cedric Hardwicke) that comes to be used in a race to beat a group of slavers to establishing a base of operations in West ... Read More
