Comment
Robert Wagner persuades his elder borther Spencer Tracy to climb a mountain to loot a plane that has crashed on the top of the mountain. However when they get there find a survivour (Anna Kashfi) which leads to tension between Robert Wagner's greed and Spencer Tracy's compassion. This is better than some more recent disaster on a mountain and climbing films with some nice location shots. Much of the film was obviously shot in a studio which is not surprising since Spencey Tracey was in his mid 50's when it was filmed. However the performances are good from both Spencer Tracy, who proved he couls still act and Robert Wagner as brothers with opposite characters in what is esstially a film with two characters in it.
