Doug Roberts, Architect, returns from a long vacation to find work nearly completed on his skyscraper. He goes to the party that night concerned he's found his wiring specifications have not been followed. A series of short circuits ensues and a fire breaks out. Michael O'Halleran - the chief on duty – must now deal with a series of daring rescues while stuck in the terror of a building too tall to have the fire successfully fought from the ground. Nominated for three Oscars, this unforgettable film with its all-star cast takes you on a ride of suspense as a tiny spark becomes a night of blazing suspense.
