English Summary:

Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines; Or, How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 Hours 11 Minutes is a 1965 British period comedy film featuring an international ensemble cast including Stuart Whitman, Sarah Miles, Robert Morley, Terry-Thomas, James Fox, Red Skelton, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Gert Fröbe and Alberto Sordi. The film, revolving around the craze of early aviation, was directed and co-written by Ken Annakin, with a musical score by Ron Goodwin.

Based on a screenplay entitled Flying Crazy, the fictional account is set in 1910, when Lord Rawnsley, an English press magnate, offers £10,000 (equivalent to £1,000,000 in 2018) to the winner of the Daily Post air race from London to Paris, to prove that Britain is "number one in the air".

A brief narration outlines man's first attempts to fly since the Stone Age inspired by a bird's flight, seen with footage from the silent film era, and man being represented by a "test pilot" (Red Skelton) encountering periodic misfortune in his attempts.

 

German Summary:

Die tollkühnen Männer in ihren fliegenden Kisten (im englischen Original: Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines or How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 Hours 11 Minutes) ist ein Spielfilm, der 1965 vom britischen Regisseur Ken Annakin überwiegend an Original-Schauplätzen an der englischen und der französischen Ärmelkanal-Küste gedreht wurde. Lord Rawnsley, Herausgeber einer englischen Zeitung, wird im Jahr 1910 während der Zeit der ersten Flugversuche, zur Steigerung der Auflage seiner Zeitung der Vorschlag gemacht, den Beweis für die englische Überlegenheit auch in der Luft durch einen Wettflug von London nach Paris zu erbringen. Nach einer internationalen Ausschreibung nehmen an dem Wettflug mehr oder weniger erfahrene Flieger aus diversen Ländern teil. Erwartet wird natürlich, dass der englische Teilnehmer – der Verlobte der Tochter des Lords – den Wettflug gewinnt.
