Written by Michael Wilson and Rod Serling, from novel by Pierre Boulle, Franklin J. Schaffner's PLANET OF THE APES opens in New York. After 50 years of sequels, remakes & reboots, the original continues to hold pride of place in cinema's pantheon of truly great, classic sci-fi. And the jaw-dropping, surprise ending is now the stuff of legend. Featuring Charlton Heston, Roddy McGowell, Maurice Evans and Kim Hunter.
