Description:
Shooting Final script for the 1960 film.
An expertly shot, low-budget space exploration film, about a cozy spaceship carrying scientists, engineers, and researchers from all over the world, with the moon as their destination. Captain John Anderson (Clark) juggles a crew with a variety of nationalities, dealing in particular with conflicts between the German and Israeli crew members over Holocaust issues. Once on the moon, the crew discovers an entire civilization of peace-loving extraterrestrials.
Though working with a pitiable budget, the producers at Luna Productions managed to hire noted cameraman John Alton, then nearing the end of his career. Alton worked on every manner of film, but is best remembered for his work in film noir, salient examples being "Hollow Triumph" (1948), "The Amazing Mr. X" (1948), "The Big Combo" (1955), and a number of important noir entries by director Anthony Mann.
