In All Its Fire, Flesh And Fury!"; "High high high above them all! ...In excitement! ...in spectacle! ...in fire, flesh and fury!"; based on the novel by Max Catto) starring Burt Lancaster, Tony Curtis, Gina Lollobrigida, Katy Jurado, Thomas Gomez, John Puleo, and Minor Watson. Note that star Burt Lancaster had been a circus performer for several years prior to becoming an actor, and he had done both trapeze and high wire stunts in the circus, and he is supposed to have done almost all of his own stunts in this movie! Also note that the movie has the characters attempting to perform a "triple" which they say had only been performed by a small number of people. In actuality, trapeze artists at the time tried to do quadruple jumps, but they couldn't have used that in the movie because it was so difficult to perform!
