Command (1955), starring James Stewart (a real life bomber pilot who was then still in the Air Force Reserve). The film features many good aerial shots of B-36s and was primarily filmed at Carswell AFB, Texas and in the Tampa, Florida area. One shot that was particularly difficult to shoot was where Stewart’s character, a baseball player was standing on a baseball field and a B-36 flew overhead, casting a shadow over him and symbolizing his coming recall to active service. In the film this character is forced to crash land his B-36 in the Arctic.
B-52 Stratofortress
The 1957 Karl Malden film Bombers B-52 gives a fictional account of the B-52’s introduction into service at Castle Air Force Base.
A B-52 was a focal point of the novel Trinity’s Child, by William Prochnau, and the TV film adaptation By Dawn’s Early Light.
