Planet Of The Apes (1968):
Charlton Heston and Roddy McDowall star in this 1968 science fiction masterpiece. Astronaut Taylor (Heston) crash lands on a distant planet ruled by apes who use a primitive race of humans for experimentation and sport. Soon Taylor finds himself among the hunted, his life in the hands of a benevolent chimpanzee scientist (McDowall). Winner of an Honorary Academy Award® for Outstanding Makeup Achievement and nominated for two Oscars, its grand entertainment from its visually arresting beginning to the chilling last moment. Frank Schaffner (1970 Academy Award® winner for Patton) directed this film written by Rod Serling (TV's "The Twilight Zone") and
Michael Wilson (Lawrence of Arabia).
