Jules Verne's Rocket to the Moon
Loose adaptation of Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon.
The clash of incompetent inventors over how to get a man to the moon attracts American showman PT Barnum, who galvanises the venture. However rivalry, jealousy, and idiocy undermine the high-profile project every step of the way.
