Just recalled one with a "sci-fi" feel.
A B-17 (or B24) is in the desert and the crew are hanging around the plane waiting for rescue.
Problem?.............they've been there for 30 or 40 years and are still in their early 20's.
On the mission, one of the crew panicked and bailed out over the Med and was picked up.
The plane is discovered and it's obviously some time in the '70's or '80's.
Richard Baseheart plays the coward who bailed out without orders. He has become an Airforce General. He originally reported the plane as "going down in the Med" and has some explaining to do as to why it's in the middle of the desert.
Turns out the crew are dead but aren't at rest because they haven't been found and buried. Their bodies are scattered in different places according to what happened to them (some died in the crash, some after at the plane site, some went off to get help etc).
Richard Baseharts character is finally disgraced as the fact that the dinghy and life vests are still in the plane and other evidence points to the fact that there was no "bailout" at all.
Does anyone remember the movie?
I suppose if I do a "filmography" search on Basehart, I'll find the name pretty quick. Hang on.
