Around The World In 80 Days
This edition has the movie spanning two discs, but will be shipped together and treated as only one title on your ZipList.
A Whirlwind Journey Of Love And Adventure!
Phileas Fogg (Pierce Brosnan) prides himself on being like clockwork. Fogg is so confident of his ability to beat the clock that he bets a small fortune with members of the reform club that he can circle the globe in 80 days! With servant Jean Passepartout (Eric Idle), Fogg soon finds himself crossing war-torn Paris, traversing the jungles of India and Burma, and dueling with Jesse James on the American prairie! Like a shadow, detective Wilbur Fix (Peter Ustinov) follows Fogg and Passepartout, even becoming a traveling companion. Fogg is the prime suspect in a bank robbery, and Fix wants the reward money! An unforeseen responsibility falls into Fogg's lap when he rescues the beautiful Princess Aouda (Julia Nickson). More importantly, Aouda arouses long-dormant feelings in Fogg's bachelor heart, but can Fogg acknowledge those feelings? The ending is one you don't want to miss!

Nice Adaptation - ScarletAngel
Nice adaptation of the book. Worth renting if you've read the book before. The DVD layout isn't very good though. I didn't realize that there were two episodes of the mini series in the first disc until I was halfway watching the second disc and realized that they were referring to events that I don't remember watching. Also, the second episode is entirely separate (even different chapter number) even though it's really a continuation of the story.
