At the start of the movie you see this...

The kid with the picture - what is that? Six engines?
Is he holding it upside down?

Could it be a Sauders-Roe Princess?

I think that's a good call.

It didn't have a T-tail, but the horizontal stabilisers were high on the fin. The overall shape certainly fits, at least as far as it can be discerned from that image.

I'm not so sure, if you see the 'Princess' in profile, the tailplane is quite high. It's hard to tell exactly what's going on at the back in the grainy image from the film.

But the 'Princess' horizontal stabilizres are of a dihedral what should be noticed in the pic though.

This is the best I could find. It's just that the grainy photo shows the stabilizers as quite flat and the Princess has dihedral...

Is it possible that the film photo isn't even a real aircraft?
