“The Towering Inferno” is an action thriller disaster movie, screenplay by Stirling Silliphant, from the Novel by Richard Martin Stern, Thomas N. Scortia and Frank M. Robinson, and Directed by John Guillermin.
The focal point of the movie is a colossal skyscraper, designed by
Architect Doug Roberts (Paul Newman), which is nearing completion when he returns
from a long vacation, but ahead of the “grand opening” party he discovers that
his wiring specifications have not been followed and as a result the building
has been experiencing an increasing number of electrical glitches.
He raises his concerns with his father in law, Jim Duncan (William
Holden) and Project Manager Simmons (Richard Chamberlain) but they are brushed aside.
Suffice is to say that during the party a fire breaks out and quickly
spreads, which threatens to destroy the tower and everyone in it.
So Michael O'Halleran (Steve McQueen), who is the chief on duty as a
series of daring rescues punctuate the terror of a building too tall to have a
fire successfully fought from the ground.
It’s a tense and thrilling tale with an amazing cast assembled by
producer Irwin Allen, who succeed in getting McQueen and Newman to co-star, he
also signed Faye Dunaway to play Newman's love interest and cast Fred Astaire,
against type as a con-man, but even more astonishing than that, he lured
reclusive and legendary film star Jennifer Jones out of retirement for the
sympathetic role of Lisolette Mueller.
He also secured other notables which included Robert Wagner, Susan
Blakely, Susan Flannery, Sheila Allen, Robert Vaughn, O.J. Simpson and Dabney
Coleman.

Are you wearing silk drawers?
I only ask you as I can see
That you appear to be the victim
Of an elastic deficiency
And if you combine that
With the force of gravity
They are around your ankles
You may think it a catastrophe
But I would beg to differ
For me it’s just serendipity
Baa Baa black sheep
Have
you any wool?
Please
say yes sir
To
make my wagon full
No,
I don’t have any wool
You
bloody Wally
I’m
not a sheep
I’m
your Border Collie
I’m thinking about taking a holiday
But
I don’t know where to go
However,
I may end up in Sane
How
I get there, I don’t know
As
they don't have an airport
You
can be driven there though
