At The Movies 10 - Wild-Blue-Yonder.jpg (1/1)

I noticed you earlier had a film about the B-29, which was entitled,
"Above and Beyond", and then there's "Wild Blue Yonder". I can remember
seeing years ago a film (in UK) about the B-29 called, "Thunder Across
the Pacific". I do know that films often had the title changed when
they came to the UK from USA, and I wondered if that was the case here?

Yep, same movie.

That renaming thing goes both ways. The
British film "The Madness of King George III"
became "The Madness of King George" because
it was assumed Americans would think it was
a sequel otherwise. Gads.
