Shipwrecked on a sea of sand

James Stewart could still pack a punch (literally and figuratively) in his later years, as evidenced by his memorable acting in “Flight of the Phoenix” (1965; 142 minutes), to be featured at Cineverse on June 13, directed by Robert Aldrich, chosen by Jim Krabec. Note that, due to this film's long runtime, we will start promptly at 7 p.m. and only a brief break following the screening.
