synopsis
Financed by the World Safari organization, Eagle Rock is a small but satisfying children's film. Pip Rolls, a young student of the Adventure School, becomes fascinated with the prospect of possessing rare eagle's eggs. He climbs a treacherous cliff to realize his goal, only to become stuck at the top. His rescuers must race against time, lest Rolls be torn asunder by the mother eagle. The film scores its highest marks visually, with excellent color photography provided by uncredited hands.
