I think I have loved and watched every time Verne's story has been made into a film. You may also want to watch Disney's rendition with Jackie Chan. Kids enjoyed these too.

Classic tv mini-series goodness. Fans of Brosnon's comic acting will love this.

1956 movie with David Niven heads the huge cast as ultra-precise, supremely punctual Phileas Fogg, who places a 20,000-pound wager. I was enjoying the movie when it asked for the Disk 2. There was none. I received the 1989 Disk 2 movie a few days later and had to watch Pierce Bronsman as Frogg. I believe the 1956 version is much better that the 1989 version - but, Atlas, I will never know. Has anybody seen the Disk 2 of the 1956 version. I really would like to see It. Phil Williams
