Walt Disney's famous film from Jules Verne's novel, starring Kirk Douglas, James Mason with Paul Lukas and Peter Lorre.
James Mason tells Radio Times:
"This was one of Disney's first live action films. He was a grand creative man, having enormous fun with all his models. The great squid scene was done twice because he claimed he could see the wires supporting the tentacles."
A terrifying monster is attacking ships in the Pacific and when marine scientist Professor Arronax sets out to investigate, he finds he has embarked on an adventure beyond his wildest dreams. Captured with his assistant and harpooner Ned Land by the fanatical Captain Nemo, Arronax discovers a fantastic underwater world - complete with real monsters.
