Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesWhen the film was originally released theatrically in 1950, the sequences on Mars were tinted red so as to impart a sense of the alien Red Planet into the black-and-white film. But subsequent TV prints did not reproduce this effect, and for decades the Martian scenes were shown only in black-and-white until the red tint was restored for home video in the early 1980s.
- PatzerIt is mentioned that the gravity on Mars is 1/2 of that on Earth. Martian gravity is actually 38% of that on Earth. The rocks thrown by the cavemen would not be nearly as dangerous as posed.
- Zitate
Harry: From this distance it would only appear a mere speck.
Major Corrigan: A mere speck? *Texas* a mere speck?
- Alternative VersionenIn the original theatrical version, the Mars scenes were tinted pink/red.
- VerbindungenEdited into Lost Continent (1951)
Ausgewählte Rezension
Rocketship X-M is a solid film, and is a darker, less optimistic effort than 1951's "Flight to Mars". The 50th anniversary DVD edition is amazing, and the "Sepiacolor" scenes on the martian surface are quite effective.
Buffs will notice that the very brief (5 second) image of the ship on the surface is a different image than in the original. The use of Death Valley for the Martian surface (at dusk) is much more effective that in scenes from Flight to Mars, which were probably all shot in a studio. Lloyd Bridges is in love with himself even more than he is with the German girl scientist on board - which is kind of nauseating - but overall, the film is a favorite.
Classical music lovers will take note of the music score by Ferde Grofe, better know for his Grand Canyon Suite and other orchestral works.
