An imperturbable English gentleman, played by the urbane David Niven, attempts to completely circumnavigate the world in eighty days in order to win a large wager. But is he also conveniently missing from London as an investigation into a robbery at the Bank Of England begins? A lavish production featuring many notable actors of the period including Noel Coward, John Gielgud and Trevor Howard and filmed in over 100 different locations around the world. Winner of 5 Oscars including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Musical Score and unsurprisingly Best Cinematography (1957).
