A wave crashes, a ship flips, and suddenly a boat-load of Oscar-winners find themselves in a fight to survive when the world turns upside down. This groundbreaking 1972 disaster film didn't just entertain audiences—it created the template that would define an entire genre for decades to come.

There’s got to be a morning after when you join us on this journey of Hell turned upside down!

All ashore that’s going to shore!

Now boarding TGA Flight #2 non-stop to Rome! We've got elderly stow-aways (and Oscar-winners), surly mechanics, a French New-wave muse, and oh yes, a former movie star with a briefcase full of dynamite.

Would you like an aisle or a window seat?

Please fasten your seat belts as we take flight on "Airport" (Universal, 1970), the iconic film that launched the disaster film genre dominating 1970s cinema, surprising critics by becoming Universal Pictures' biggest hit ever. This groundbreaking movie combines melodrama with suspense as multiple characters navigate personal crises against the backdrop of a snowstorm and a mad bomber threatening a transatlantic flight.

Last call! Once the cabin doors are closed, no one will be permitted to board.

In "Midnight Express" (Columbia, 1978) Brad Davis delivers a gut-wrenching performance as a young man whose brief moment of stupidity in a foreign country derails his entire life and inexorably alters his future. Based on the true story of American tourist Billy Hayes’ harrowing fight to survive and escape from a Turkish prison in the 1970s, the film garnered 6 Oscar nominations and two wins (including one for first-time screenwriter Oliver Stone) and altered US-Turkish relations for years to come.
