. "The Hook" (1963)

On Amazon $3.99 ... https://www.amazon.com/Hook-Kirk-Douglas/dp/B01ENX42VC

Set during the Korean War (1950-53). Two No-Ko bombers strafe and bomb a ship which returns fire, the pilots bail out and the bombers "go in"...

Tallmantz B-25s (N1203 and N9456Z) appear for a few seconds. Note the square wingtips on N1203.

...The Cinerama camera ...

01 Paul Mantz and "This is Cinerama" (1952) co-producer Bob Bendick with the camera (film reels not installed) in the B-25 nose

02 "This is Cinerama" Cinematographer Harry Squire and assistent Jack Priestly with the massive Cinerama Cam on a tripod

03 Three reels of 35mm exposed simultaneously, which come together as a single scene from three different projectors in the theater

Wonder how much ballast they had to put in the aft fuselage.
