Silent Star

East Germany/Poland

Big budget film from 1959. Though obviously dated this was a good attempt to envision a trip to Venus and bring to life a novel by S. Lem.

Imaginative sets and visuals generally. Cardboard characters. The tech stuff was laughable seen from today but it was as good as Forbidden Planet.

Just a curiousity piece now.
