When Worlds Collide -- An impending collision with a runaway star signals the destruction of earth.

Rugged American adventurer Harry Steele (Charlton Heston), who works as a tour guide in Peru, possesses part of a map leading to an invaluable Inca artifact and is racing to locate it before it's found by archaeologist Stanley Moorehead (Robert Young) or con man Ed Morgan (Thomas Mitchell). Using an airplane stolen with the help of a Romanian refugee (Nicole Maurey), Harry continues his quest at the stunning and treacherous Machu Picchu.

Cary Grant stars as an executive who leaves his overly- ambitious wife to marry the exotic daughter of a sheik who is trained in the art of pleasing a man. Unexpected drawbacks make Grant second-guess his choice. Co-starring Debora Kerr, Walter Pidgeon and Steve Forrest.

An impending collision with a runaway star signals the destruction of Earth. The government refuses to listen to scientists, but private industrialists finance the building of a spaceship, which will carry a limited number of people to another planet to begin a new civilization. As doomsday approaches, they race against time and the panic of those who will be left behind. The potential pulverizing impact of the collision, the massive tidal waves and devastating earthquakes, and the final cosmic smashup make a chilling panorama of disaster. The balance between human and planetary drama is excellently maintained as the movie builds to its fascinating, unforgettable climax.

Oscar-winner Spencer Tracy ("Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?," "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde") received his fourth nomination as an exasperated banker who has misgivings about his engaged daughter's groom. Oscar-winner Elizabeth Taylor ("Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?," "National Velvet") portrays the daughter. With Oscar-nominees Billie Burke ("The Wizard of Oz") and Russ Tamblyn ("Seven Brides for Seven Brothers," "Peyton Place"). Directed by Academy Award-winning director Vincente Minnelli ("An American in Paris," "Gigi") and produced by Academy Award-recipient Pandro S. Berman ("Ivanhoe," "Top Hat"). Nominated for Best Picture and Screenplay, this hilarious look at family chaos spawned a sequel. Although remade in 1991 with Steve Martin and Diane Keaton, this classic is considered by many as the best.

What a cast! Probably the biggest budgeted exploitation film ever made. Story depicts the evils of alcoholism and its tragic effects on various people. Hokey, campy, but slick. Produced by Kroger Babb. 35mm.
