"Summary: Isambard Kingdom Brunel (1806-1859) was a civil and mechanical engineer of outstanding ability. Though often criticised by his contemporaries, he was responsible for many original and daring projects. Amongst the most impressive were the design and construction of the Great Western Railway and that of the transatlantic steamer, the Great Eastern, which was so large that it became stuck in the dock moments after launching. This affectionate and delightfully inventive animated musical biography is a film in the tradition of the Goon Show and Monty Python's Flying Circus. Borrowers are warned that some of the humour is a little risqué and may offend some viewers. Awards: Academy Awards."@en . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
