Thank you so much for posting this movie here!!!!! This is one of my favorite Sci-Fi Movies of all time along with "H.G. Wells' First Men in the Moon." Jules Verne was ahead of his time and seeing how technology was going to progress. He was one of the many visionaries as Leonardo da Vinci, H.G. Wells, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Gene Roddenberry, and many unnamed others.

Thank you very much for giving this fantastic movie to us for viewing. It has been almost 50 years since I saw it the first and last time on television.
I'm 78 now and remember this movie as a 12 yr. old in '58 and was really glad to have seen it again tonight so thanks so much for putting it on YT to bring all the memories flooding back. It was so much fun growing up then when life was so much simpler and happy times were a daily occurrence and now it's only Sad and Stressful but thank God I am almost done with it all~!!!
We are close to the same age, and thank you for saying what I was thinking, as I watched this. We are perhaps fortunate to have experienced the beauty, simplicity and purity of life in our younger years, as God wanted us to. And now that the world has changed beyond salvation, I am also glad that I will not be part of it for too long. Thank you and God bless you.
@@Sophie-go3ql To both above comments, the past just seems good because we were young and healthy and dumb. Things are so much better now in every respect.
It's a fantasy, but _what_ a fantasy! I watched this late one night on TV, and I'm so glad I did. Steampunk fans should love it. If you like this, then I also recommend _Master of the World,_ with Vincent Price and Charles Bronson.
I believe the spinning capsules used the sound of the "Dee Cee" device that looked like a Star Trek transporter as the C-57D left hyperspace. Subsequently, there were various sound effects from after landing on Altair Four, including the outdoor fight scene with the Id Monster. Also, there seem to be some Forbidden Planet props in the below decks.

"From the Earth to the Moon" 1958 (Adventure, Sci-Fi) Joseph Cotten, George Sanders, Debra Paget. A pretty decent Jules Verne Sci Fi classic from (1958) it's just adventure story is relevant today as it was in 1958. Thanks for putting on You-Tube very much enjoyed, it's got some amazing actors delivering a solid performance. 8 out of 10.
I've never seen this and I've seen so many 50s and 60s SF movies (of gradually decreasing quality) recently... I just didn't know where to pitch my hopes... And *oh my Gosh* it's an actual quality movie! Look at that colour (glorious Technicolour - how I've missed thee, amid the desert of washed-out Italian tripe), the photography is so crisp! The cast - including people I've heard of, and well-credited in the title sequence, good-looking too (not always a sign of quality, sadly) and - *Oh Wow* - It's a *BYRON HASKIN* film! I'm so stoked for this. Thank you, Cult Cinema Classics: You've delivered a golden egg here.
Thank you. Love George Sanders and always enjoyed seeing this film. Trivia note: Debra Paget said the script changed frequently as Mr. Sanders and Mr. Cotten kept rewriting it!
So do I. It really was of its time, and I very much doubt it would still work. Wooden acting, laughable dialogues, ridiculous happenstances, and to top it all off, the "science" is far less accurate than that described in the 1865 novel. Don't get me wrong, I still think it's entertaining, but much more for nostalgia than anything else.
Another great, old movie from better years. It's nice to once again watch a movie and feel that sense of hope and wonder that I used to feel when I viewed movies back in my youth. A person just doesn't seem to have much hope for anything these days. As always, thank you for downloading and sharing this encouraging movie. :^)
I'm 73 and I feel more hope and wonder than ever. I am sorry you are so disappointed with life. "Better years" if you mean being able to discriminate against various non-white groups, doing without the plethora of life saving and life affirming medical advances, littering and polluting with no remorse or guilt, then I guess you are right. For me, the wonder of scientific advances and new discoveries makes me want to never stop and never fantasize about the supposed good old days that weren't too good anyway.
Put this in the same category with the films: Journey To The Center Of The Earth, Mysterious Island, 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, The Time Machine, War Of The Worlds, etc. Technicolor big budget extravaganzas with notable casts of the '50s & early '60s
Desde luego la forma de ir a la luna en ese momento, me parece mucho mejor que ahora (sin traje espacial, ni comidas raras)... Muchas gracias por la película, saludos...
Legend has it that, 156 years later, "power-X" has now become "space-X" and the richest man on the planet today, the descendant of Victor Barbicane, is still trying to reach the Moon to find his ancestor...
Even a couple ancient Roman philosophers wrote of similar things. As Willy Shakespere said a few centuries ago, "There is nothing new under the sun!" It's all been done before. 😎👍
Classic movie with some great actors! There are a few holes in the story though. One minute the workers are outside with pitchforks and death threats and the next they are celebrating the launch of the rocket! Also Nicholl says Barbicane doesn't know it but he will be going too. With nothing more said, he suddenly is going too. Almost like a scene was missing, with him saying he would not give the glass outer shell to Barbicane unless he goes. Still I did enjoy it!
That was a really amazing film, probably some of the other Moon- and Mars-Researcher and -funders feel one day like they felt in this movie. Thank you very much for uploading this film. With friendly regards from Warsaw/Poland
This was amazing. It’s got pieces of “The Manhatten Project”, “Project Apollo”, and the movie “Forbidden Planet”. Also a nod to the Space Shuttle “Columbiad”.
@@Emdee5632 hi, MD. (or should I call you “Doc”?) I understand where NASA got its reference to “Columbia”. It’s been a part of US culture for about 100 years & makes sense. I don’t know Verne’s source for the name”Columbiad”. If you know, please share.
@@tfk0527 Well I did some homework (which I really should have done earlier) and it seems a columbiad was a large heavy type of muzzle loading cannon of the 19th century invented by a US Army officer and used until the early 20th century. So it's indeed an American type of gun.
@@Emdee5632 ditto, I did a little homework, too. Great minds … If you check out Wikipedia under “Columbia (personification)”, this is the reference with which I was (mostly) familiar.

Dziękuję za film. Większość dostępnych w Polsce w latach 1968 - 1975 przeczytałem. Filmów było mało ale i te udało mi się oglądnąć. Adaptacja filmowa jakoś nie pasuje mi do tego co pamiętam z przeczytanej książki. Może to sprawa tłumaczenia, "amerykańskiego sposobu adaptacji" a może mojego wieku gdy to czytałem. :) Postanowiłem przeczytać ponownie!
The conceptions of space travel are so farcically fantastical, but it was written in 1865 ;) great kitch fun, interesting to think this adaptation was made in 1958, when understandings were far more advanced than 1865, its victorian steampunk kitch.
Although the movie is not accurate in portraying the actual jules Verne's book it is much enjoyable considering the filming techniques and the technology of the era it was shot!
Do you know why? It was horrible. TV stations needed viewers to get advertisers. This movie is a disaster on nitrocellulose that should have melted in the can
What an awesome ending!……..especially when the two of them are looking back at the moon on the way home to Earth, and she puts her hand & fingers OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW FRAME!!!
Some TRIVIA notes: Alot of the props and machinery inside the ship were later used in one of the dumbest, wackiest hilariously bad Mexican flm, SHIP OF MONSTERS 9it's on YT). This film was shot in Mexico to save costs. It wasn't fully finished properly. For instance, shots of the film in space with flames underneath it were supposed to be composited with moving stars in the background, but....were never completed. The brief opening narration and countdown voice was done by actor Robert Clarke who shortly after this film starred in and directed THE HIDEOUS SUN DEMON and starred in and produced BEYOND THE TIME BARRIER. The strange electronic music and sound effects aboard the moon-bound ship are from FORBIDDEN PLANET. Like I said, trivia! ;-7
You understand that the original draft had a different and more accurate term. Congressional Military Industrial Complex. After all, without Congress, the opposite of progress, no money would be appropriated for either of the others.

Ripping off previous movies is a sci-fi tradition. Some of the sounds in Star Trek (original) came from earlier movies.

And... Yes, funny how they used the forbidden Planet soundtrack

Alot of the props and machinery inside the ship were later used in one of the dumbest, wackiest hilariously bad Mexican flm, SHIP OF MONSTERS 9it's on YT). This film was shot in Mexico to save costs. It wasn't fully finished properly. For instance, shots of the film in space with flames underneath it were supposed to be composited with moving stars in the background, but....were never completed.

Like I said, trivia! ;-7
*Thanks. Well known trivia. There should be a word for that.*
Ooohh, yes! I saw it; Lalo vs. The Space Monsters 😜!
45:30- "...because you're a scientist...". I love that line!
41:30..
I read Vernes book a long time ago, this adaptation seems different, more cold war worries here but still worth watching
Its way more different than the book
Best Sci-Fi movie ever ... except Wallace and Gromit's "A Grand Day Out" ;-)
Jules Verne : Monsieur Wells...I am the father of Science Fiction!
H.G. Wells : Prove it, Frenchie!

Nice digs 0n that spaceship
Thank you very much for the lovely film. The main thing is that they are all wearing peaked caps.
Finally an actor who shuts the door
Aye, but doesn't, somehow, open it.
Great film .
Sound effects from Forbidden Planet. 😅
And no credit for Louise and Bebe Barron again after being denied their "electronic tonalities" as music in that film.
Nice roomy spaceships back in the day. pheasant under glass in outer space.
Good film
An interesting use of the Forbidden Planet soundtrack as they headed off to an around the Moon..
Nice ! Seems that they used the same sound effects in "Forbidden Planet "
I liked the couch and desk in the hull.
Wood panelling on the walls was a nice touch!
I'm glad Morganan 6:15 brought up that... Selfish greed While others struggled against death.
Just remember what president Eisenhower said,beware of the military industrial complex 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😮
You understand that the original draft had a different and more accurate term. Congressional Military Industrial Complex. After all, without Congress, the opposite of progress, no money would be appropriated for either of the others.
They run the stock market everything for war we get the bills and grief never paid back stop the massacre of innocent people
That opening credit book looks cool,,
The original Astrodome!
New versions of old movies are only visually better but they’re lucking a story behind it. Music in old movies is much better composed (if you will a musical special effects) .
And the biggest plus they’re made without pornography,cursing,homosexuality,drugs,excessive violence etc.
ИНТЕРЕСНЕЕ ВСЕГО ,,АЕЛИТА,,.
If no one have noticed, the sound effects from this movie are originally from the 1956 movie "Forbidden Planet."
An ambitious film for its day--i guess the swan song of RKO? At any rate, a fine script and a talented cast.
The original one was wild no talking ❤
Shhh!
