=============
Author - H G Wells.
A wonderful film that you will remember.
We meet Mr Bedford who calls himself a capitalist, a capitalist who at the moment is a little short of cash. One day Mr Bedford meets Professor Cavor just as he has perfected his invention, Cavorite. Cavorite is basically an anti-gravity paint.
Together they build space ship, paint on the Cavorite, and take a trip to the Moon. However once there ... ...decide to steal the secret of Cavorite and invade the earth.
Only Bedford and professor Cavor can stop them. There are a few twists and turns along the way and not everybody will make it back to Earth.
Stars the enigmatic Lionel Jeffries.
A wonderful film that grips you right from the start and never lets go. The special effects are quite good considering when it was made. The writing and acting are spot on. ...
