First Men in the Moon
H.G. Wells' Astounding Adventure in Dynamation!
Directed by Nathan Juran
Produced by Columbia Pictures, Ameran Films
A whimsical Victorian-era space adventure that playfully subverts the space race narrative through imaginative spectacle and period charm.
The world is delighted when a spacecraft containing a crew made up of the world's astronauts lands on the moon, but are shocked when the astronauts discover an old British flag and a document declaring that the moon is taken for Queen Victoria proving that the astronauts were not the first men on the moon.
