Adapted from William Shakespeare’s Tempest, the movie starts with a rescue team searching for the survivors of an exploring crew left on Planet Altair IV decades ago. They’ll meet there the only survivor, Dr. Morbius, living here with his daughter born and raised on the hostile planet… Forbidden Planet was the very first science-fiction movie of the MGM and the very first picture of the genre shot in cinemascope and in colors. It also was the first movie in history to feature an entirely synthetic soundtrack. From design to themes, Forbidden Planet was a major influence for science-fiction films and is still now one of the most brilliant productions of the genre.
