Review of Airport 2013 (2014) by John W — 08 May 2015
Starring Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin, Jean Seberg, Jacqueline Bissett, Helen Hayes and Van Heflin. Overblown but immensely entertaining story of the intertwined lives of the employees at a major urban airport as they each deal with emotional baggage -- the 'carry-ons' of their personal lives.
Lancaster heads the all-star cast as an overworked airport manager dealing with the end of his marriage and a bad blizzard on the same evening. Martin is flying a plane on which a passenger is crazed bomber Van Heflin in his last film.
Helen Hayes deservedly won an Oscar as a mischievous seventy-year-old stowaway. Based on Arthur Hailey's best-selling 1968 novel and directed by George Seaton.
