This is Doing Nothing for My Nerves

Airport
1970 Nominee

Is this the movie that launched a thousand other movies where Hollywood decided if the cast was stellar, then the movie was automatically good? This can’t be the first time this happened. But it happened.

I thought this was about how all pilots are cheaters (they are), but actually a whole other thing happens and that one lady that was with Gary Cooper in the Hemingway story is also in this and she won an Oscar for playing a sneaky old lady who knits on the airplane. This did absolutely nothing for my flight anxiety, except validate it with celebs.

    Just so you know, nothing about this movie propelled me into the airline industry that I joined years later (1978). Quite the opposite.
