The Dawn Patrol (1930)
Country: US
Technical: bw 106m
Director: Howard Hawks
Cast: Richard Barthelmess, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Neil Hamilton
Synopsis:
A WWI flying ace gets a taste of the duress of command when he is promoted to Squadron Leader and sees his men drop like flies.
Review:
Creaking somewhat at the struts now, this psychological drama is at times grounded by the painfully slow acting of early sound, but Hawks ensures some exciting aerial sequences to keep us interested. Warners remade it at the end of the decade with Flynn and Niven.
