Lowell Thomas follows in the footsteps of Marco Polo in this new, digital restoration, the fourth of the original, three-panel Cinerama travelogues. The motion picture takes you to the "Roof of the World," the Himalayas and Karakoram mountains of Central Asia, the highest region in the world.
One of the best Cinerama features has been beautifully restored. The exotic locations make the film the least dated of all of them. The awful lyrics sung by Robert Merrill are the only negative in this film.
