Presented in 13 chapters, “Flash Gordon” is the first screen adventure for the comic strip character created by Alex Raymond in 1934. It presents the story of Gordon’s visit to the planet Mongo and his encounters with the evil Emperor Ming the Merciless. Buster Crabbe, Jean Rogers, Charles Middleton (as Ming), Priscilla Lawson (as Princess Aura) and Frank Shannon (as Dr. Zarkov) portray the film’s central characters. In 1996, “Flash Gordon” was selected for preservation in the U. S. National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” [Source: Wikipedia] Movie trailer: www..com/watch?v=A8BFrd1ckSw
