[@stewartmackay]

Well, I remember being around 10 years old, curled up on the armchair on a rainy Sunday afternoon, watching this fantastic film. This old movie had a magic about it, you really got lost in the world of Jules Verne. In the same genre as The Time Machine, this really brought back memories for me. I'm 52 now.

[@RasMajnouni]

Yes, I am 68 and the film has always stayed in my memory. This joke is sludge

My Mom took me to see this when I was 8 - because she knew I loved anything with dinosaurs. It's only now I realize how much she was willing to do for love. I love you Mom.

I read this book as a child in the 60's. I was house bound with casts on my legs, unable to do normal kid's stuff and one of older brothers introduced me to Jules Verne books and a few other great authors. My brother is responsible for my love of books.

[@brianarbenz1329]

Jules Verne was a very big presence in my young life. My grandfather, Charles Verne Rodman, was named in his honor, and I loved a lot of his works, notably Around The World in 80 Days, and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

[@jackshittle]

Thanks for sharing Brian. I'll be 51 in a couple of weeksl and can remember this film, The Time Machine & another good one I liked was The Land That Time Forgot. Anything 1950's sci-fi I also loved & still do; This Island Earth, Forbiden Planet, War Of The Worlds, Earth vs The Flying Saucers, The Giant Claw, etc.

[@shirleykahn2059]

Wow they sure took license making this film the way they did!

[@SamDeeksRelovedGuitars]

Same for me (without a family member being named after him!) - what annoys me about all the film versions of this story is first the playing around with the language and names in an attempt to dumb it down for us (in some versions 'Axel' becomes 'Alex', in this and others 'Lidenbrock' becomes 'Lindenbrock'.. here 'Gräuben' becomes 'Glauben' (the verb 'to think' in German?!) etc. They are small details but as a child I read and re-read this book so many times and I rolled those names around my tongue so many times... these details matter to kids... just as I could write 'Arne Saknussem' in the runes contained in the book... and could recite Saknussem's latin message verbatim ("....kod feci / I have done this") etc etc. I didn't need it dumbing down as an 8 year old child, nor did I need any extra intrigue with the addition of other wicked characters for this story to engross me and make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. The far-off, slightly hard-to-make-out clash of the water titans in the book leaves it mostly to our imagination... cinema on the other hand introduces terrible rubber monsters with wobbly teeth... (sigh). Still, this was fun. I loved how this was a) made in Spain (filmed in Lanzarote by the look of it), over-recorded with the actors voices on top of them speaking English (presumably the soundtrack was discovered to be unusable so they re-recorded all the dialogue in a studio and dubbed it back on... and Hans, the young, strong Icelander of my memory looks like the star of a spaghetti western :-)

I'm an old fan of 1959 movie, 'Journey to the Center of the Earth'; have been since my early 70's childhood, and still today. It is a movie classic that is a central part of my DVD/Blu-Ray collection. However, to be perfectly honest, I never knew of this 1977 movie or version called, 'Where Time Begins.' While nearly the same story line, the added intrigue of the mysterious man and men found underground was surprising; that's a twist I didn't see coming. Still, the 1959 version is still my favorite.

[@gerardflynn7382]

Bar the singing it's a very good movie.

[@Atlantianreborn]

I love it. They are underground & enter a cavern with huge wind blowing through & he decides to get his flimsy book out to read. What a script.

[@justdoingitjim7095]

I had never seen this version before. I enjoyed laughing at the crude attempts at "special effects!" At least it didn't have the obligatory villain, that so many movies just have to have.

[@tacticplanner7188]

Thanks for the great old movie, when they used great actors and acting. Along with creative cinematography, in the absence of special effects to create a wonderful work of fiction that feels like reality. I wish they could make them like they used to.

[@adamsmashups4839]

Finally,after more than 40 years!Let me explain..... My parents took me to see this when it played at the local cinema.For years and years,the only memory I had was of the 2 monsters in the water fighting one another.I remember that scene because when I was a kid,I so fooled by the special effects,that I thought they used 2 live lizards that were actually biting one another and tearing each other apart. Ever since than,my thoughts would sometimes go back to this film but the title had long been forgotten.I knew though that it was not The Land That Time Forgot,The People That Time Forgot or At The Earths Core.My parents also took me to those three films,at the same cinema that I saw Journey...I think though that when I saw it,it was called Where Time Began. Last week,i was looking at the wikipedia entry for Juan Piquer Simon,as I had earlier been watching The Super Sonic Man,and I was curious to see what other films he had done.This one is listed as coming out in 1976/1977 and is also known as Where Time Began.This led me to suspect that it very well could be that movie I was trying to find since my youth. So my sincere thanks to you for uploading and allowing me re live part of my childhood.

I have never seen this version of Jules Verne classic book, but now that I have gotten into it I think it might turn out to be the best, especially with Sir Kenneth Moore as lead actor, he has played some epic roles in his lifetime and I am sure that this alongside “Reach for the Sky” will be one of his finest, thanks for sharing it. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

"if the original author of this novel still live, " Jules Verne died in 1905 so no royalties. As another film link rewatch Back to the future 3 there are a number of references to Verne's work including the Doc naming his two boys Jules and Verne at the end

[@tarkineWild]

Watching this again has rekindled some wonderful childhood memories

[@dougimmel]

Same here. Sir Kenneth Moore, the fellow who buys the books, and then who stands up and scolds the scientists, is the same man playing the Ghost of Christmas Present in the musical SCROOGE with Albert Finney. I'd know that voice anywhere. THIS is a half decent version of "Journey..." worth a watch. Monsters and effects are corny, but it beats the hell out of the later Ricky Schroder Peter Fonda mess.

I saw the 1959 version in the theater when I was a kid, and except for being a small screen it was just as awesome when I saw it last week. Other than the cheesy iguana "dinosaurs", the special effects are still beautiful and astonishing -- real models and film tricks, no CGI crap -- the Bernard Herrmann score still entrancing, and James Mason's acting still a delight. As with George Sanders, you know James Mason is your social better the moment he opens his mouth.

Scientists have always thought that the center is nothing but magma, but Jules Verne could have also had it right too.
