John Travolta, best known for his iconic roles in Saturday Night Fever and Pulp Fiction, has now directed his first film, with the rather unusual title of Propeller One-Way Night Coach.
It's an ode to what's known as the golden days of flying in the US in the 1960s.
The Hollywood actor has been a lifelong aviation enthusiast and is also a licensed pilot.
He's been speaking to the BBC's Tom Brook.
At the Cannes Film Festival, he received a surprise honorary Palme d'Or, the equivalent of a Lifetime Achievement Award.
For the two-time Oscar nominee, who's appeared in since 70 roles, getting the top French accolade was an emotional moment.
This is beyond the Oscar, really.
Travolta became a major box office draw in the 1970s with his starring role in Saturday Night Fever, a defining movie of the disco era.
He's also well-remembered for his dance moves opposite Uma Thurman in the 1994 crime thriller Pulp Fiction.
But now, at the age of 72, he's moved behind the camera for the first time to make his directorial debut.
His film is called Propeller, One Way Nightcoach.
Travolta is a lifelong aviation enthusiast, and the new film charts the adventures of a young boy flying with his mother from New York to Los Angeles in the 1960s.
The picture is based on a children's short story Travolta wrote in 1997.
It draws on some of his childhood experiences.
Travolta told me he felt it was a project only he could direct.
And this is all my visions, my memories, the schedules, the meals.
I did every bit of it to satisfy these memories of mine.
But it's a passion for me.
But this film is far from being a major cinematic exercise.
