4/10
Never Takes Flight
28 March 2015
In England, American air traffic controller Zachary Scott (as Richard Van Ness) orders his playboy pilot pal Robert Beatty (as Nick Talbot) not to fly, due to an approaching storm. The warning is ignored and a mishap occurs. This results in Mr. Scott, who suffers from blackouts, to discover illegal smuggling is suspected at the airport. Scott's blackouts are the reason he won't marry girlfriend Naomi Chance (as Avril Talbot). She is Mr. Beatty's sister and expects Scott to look after the reckless man. None of this is very exciting, as even Terence Fisher's characters seem disinterested. Although it doesn't help much, things pick up with a fight and car crash near the end. Also, beautiful Kay Kendall (as Alexia La Roche) appears, on the verge of fame; she later married actor Rex Harrison and died, way too soon, of leukemia.
