Hollywood
Hollywood is a neighborhood in Los Angeles, California - situated west-northwest of Downtown Los Angeles. Due to its fame and cultural identity as the historical center of movie studios and movie stars, the word "Hollywood" is often used as a metonym of American cinema, and is often interchangeably used to refer to the greater Los Angeles area in general. The nicknames StarStruck Town and Tinseltown refer to Hollywood and its movie industry. Today, much of the movie industry has dispersed into surrounding areas such as the Westside neighborhood, but significant auxiliary industries, such as editing, effects, props, post-production, and lighting companies remain in Hollywood, as does the backlot of Paramount Pictures.

Movie Trailer: Airport: 1970

- Published: 30 Nov 2007
- Updated: 29 Aug 2012
This was a marketing project for my editing class. I really liked this film, but the original trailer wasn't much more then a cast reel. If you can see any similarities, I used the trailer for "Rendition" as a template for what generally is a modern trailer; hence the "New Line" splash (not the original production company) and the choice of the first piece of music. ***UPDATE: I want to thank everyone for the views and the supportive and constructive comments! I will no longer be updating this channel with new content, but if you are interested in seeing more of my current and more recent work, feel free: www.youtube.com

Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson) is a well-meaning but not especially bright fellow with a gift for making the worst of any situation. Bean is about to be fired from his job as a guard at the Royal Nation Art Gallery for sleeping on the job, but the Chairman (John Mills) intervenes at the last moment. To insure that his incompetence will manifest itself so completely that there will be no choice but to get rid of him, Bean's superiors come up with a plan -- they'll send him to America to speak at a posh private gallery owned by George Grierson (Harris Yulin), where General Newton (Burt Reynolds) will display the most recent addition to his art collection, "Whistler's Mother." It's even money whether or not the museum will still be standing before Bean is done; as if this weren't enough, while <b>...</b>

Via deze film krijgt u alvast een voorproefje van het comfort van het vliegen van Rotterdam Airport. In de film kunt u zien dat de luchthaven goed bereikbaar is met de auto en dat de auto dichtbij kan worden geparkeerd. Alle parkeerterreinen liggen namelijk op loopafstand van het luchthavengebouw. Bovendien ziet u dat de passagier, dankzij korte afstanden en snelle afhandeling, veel tijd kan winnen bij het inchecken.

Here is my second visit to London Heathrow Airport to film planes in 2010. The first two planes in the video were filmed on foot just outside Hatton Cross Tube Station on the public footpath. The rest of the planes filmed were from the public park at Myrtle Avenue which is about a 5min walk from Hatton Cross Tube Station. This time I managed to film the All Nippon Airlines and the Japan Airlines Boeing 777 aircrafts as well. There is also some Boeing 747 planes from British Airways Cathay Pacific and Malaysia Airlines. List of Airlines Aer Lingus All Nippon Airlines Altaria BMI British Airways (BAW) Cathay Pacific Iberia KLM Malaysia Airlines (MH) Singapore Airlines (SIA) SAS (Scandinavian Airlines) All of the Aeroplanes that are filmed in this video used Runway 27 Left (27L) to land on.

Airport is a 1970 American film starring Burt Lancaster and Dean Martin and based on the 1968 Arthur Hailey novel of the same name. The film, which earned nearly $100,500,000,[1] focuses on an airport manager trying to keep his airport open during a snow storm, while a suicidal bomber plots to blow up a Boeing 707 airliner in flight. The story takes place at a fictional Lincoln International Airport located near Chicago. The film was written for the screen and directed by George Seaton. Seaton was assisted by Henry Hathaway, and Ernest Laszlo photographed it in 70 mm Todd-AO. The film cost $10 million to produce.
This was the last film scored by Alfred Newman, who died shortly before the film's release. Airport was also the last major film role for Van Heflin.
The film was a critical success and surpassed Spartacus as Universal Pictures' biggest moneymaker.[2] It won Helen Hayes an Academy Award for her supporting role as an elderly stowaway. It was nominated for nine more Academy awards, including Best Picture, Best Cinematography, and Best Costume Design for renowned Hollywood designer Edith Head.
Airport originated the 1970s disaster film genre, establishing the convention of "microcosmic melodrama combined with catastrophe-oriented adventure".[3]

Plot[link]
This film was based on the novel by Arthur Hailey. With attention to the detail of day-to-day airport and airline operations, the plot concerns the response to a paralyzing snowstorm, environmental concerns over noise pollution, and an attempt to blow up an airliner.
Demolition expert D.O. Guerrero (Van Heflin), down on his luck and with a history of mental illness, buys life insurance with the intent of committing suicide by blowing up Trans Global Airlines Flight Two, known as The Golden Argosy, a Rome-bound Boeing 707 intercontinental jet, from a snowbound Chicago-area airport. He plans to set off a bomb in an attache case while over the Atlantic with the intent that his wife, Inez (Maureen Stapleton), will collect the insurance money.
When the Golden Argosy crew is made aware of Guerrero's presence and intentions, Captain Vernon Demerest (Dean Martin), a pilot flying as co-pilot seat to evaluate Captain Anson Harris (Barry Nelson), goes back into the passenger cabin and tries to persuade Guerrero not to trigger the bomb. Meanwhile, airport manager Mel Bakersfeld (Burt Lancaster) deals with personal, weather, runway and stowaway problems from the ground.
When confronted by Captain Demerest, Guerrero briefly considers giving the attache containing the bomb until a male passenger yells out to a passenger exiting the lavatory that Guerrero has a bomb. Guerrero, holding the case close to him, runs into the lavatory at the rear of the aircraft and triggers the bomb. The detonation blows a hole in the wall of the lavatory and Guerrero with it. Chief Stewardess Gwen Meighen (Jacqueline Bisset), who is having an affair with the married Demerest and is pregnant with Demerest's child, is injured in the explosion and subsequent rapid decompression. With all airports east of Chicago unusable due to bad weather, the plane returns to Lincoln International for an emergency landing, even though another airliner stuck in snow has closed the primary runway. TWA (Trans World Airlines, an actual airline of the time) chief mechanic at Lincoln, Joe Patroni (George Kennedy) is enlisted by Bakersfeld to lead the efforts to move the stuck aircraft, another Boeing 707, even though it belongs to a different airline, TGA (Trans Global Airlines, a fictional airline and the parent company of the film's Golden Argosy jet) Patroni, who is "taxi-qualified" on Boeing 707s, is trying to move the stuck aircraft in time for Demerest's damaged aircraft to land. By exceeding the Boeing 707 flight manual's engine operating parameters, Patroni frees the stuck jet, allowing Lincoln International's primary runway to be reopened just in time to permit the crippled Golden Argosy to land.
The film is characterized by personal stories intertwining while decisions are made minute-by-minute by the airport and airline staffs, operations and maintenance crews, flight crews, and FAA air traffic controllers.

Production[link]
Most of the filming was at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. A display in the terminal, with stills from the field and the film, says: "Minnesota's legendary winters attracted Hollywood here in 1969, when portions of the film Airport were shot in the terminal and on the field. The weather remained stubbornly clear, however, forcing the director to use plastic 'snow' to create the appropriate effect."
Only one Boeing 707 was used: N324F, a 707-349C leased from Flying Tiger Line. It sported an El Al cheatline over its bare metal finish, with the fictional Trans Global Airlines (TGA) titles and tail.
Reception[link]
Box office[link]
Airport was released on March 5, 1970. It made $100,489,151, and adjusted for inflation this was equivalent to $558 million in 2010, the 42nd highest-grossing film of all time.[4]
Reviews[link]
Variety wrote: "Based on the novel by Arthur Hailey, over-produced by Ross Hunter with a cast of stars as long as a jet runway, and adapted and directed by George Seaton in a glossy, slick style, Airport is a handsome, often dramatically involving $10 million epitaph to a bygone brand of filmmaking" but added that the film "does not create suspense because the audience knows how it's going to end." [5]
Modern critics have mostly panned it,[6][7] with the most generous reviews complimenting the film's influence on the disaster genre and its "camp value."[8][9]

Score[link]
This movie was the final film project of composer Alfred Newman. His health was failing and he was unable to conduct the sessions for the recording of his music. The job was handled by Stanley Wilson, although the cover of the 1993 Varese Sarabande CD issue credits Newman. Newman did conduct the music heard in the film. He died before the release of the film. Newman received his 45th Oscar nomination posthumously for this film, the most received by a composer. John Williams matched him in 2006.
