LIVING IN THE AGE OF AIRPLANES offers a fresh perspective on a modern-day miracle that many of us take for granted: flying. Narrated by Harrison Ford and featuring an original score from Academy Award® winning composer James Horner, the film takes viewers to 18 countries across all seven continents to illuminate how airplanes have empowered a century of global connectedness our ancestors could never have imagined.

Following its premiere at the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC, the film continued its successful run on giant screen, digital, IMAX® and museum cinemas worldwide in 2015/2016. It will be released digitally and on DVD/Blu-ray in October 2016 along with the release of the original soundtrack.

LIVING IN THE AGE OF AIRPLANES is directed by Brian J. Terwilliger (One Six Right) and produced by Terwilliger and Bryan H. Carroll. Director of Photography is Andrew Waruszewski. Music is by James Horner (Avatar, Titanic). Editor is Brad Besser.

My Review:
"Living in the Age of Airplanes" starts out talking about what the world was like before Airplanes ever existed. It explains what people used for transportation before airplanes came alone and what types of transportation was used. Then the movie talks about airplanes and how airplanes "marked the beginning of a revolution." We also got to see Seaplanes and the Indian Ocean! All of the ocean videography was beautiful and enchanting. And then, Antarctica! So much snow. So much wonder! They even showed the actual South Pole! The movie also has more to it, but I won't spoil it for you. My four year old daughter even watched most of it with me and she said it was cool and that she liked it.
