O. T.) Anybody seen this old film?

Recommended Posts

Sometimes I come across things like this and don't take proper note. So here I share this link and wonder amongst our broad bunch of Barmy OFFers if any have seen or perhaps possess a copy.

One day I was fartin' 'round the internet and saw a reference to a WWII propaganda film featuring the story of WWI aviation and it's pilot heroes. Wish I had book marked that one...

Lou, I wish you well in your search. I hope it will prove not to be a big tease, wild goose chase.

 

The other film is perhaps the 1938 German film "Pour le Mérite" seems to have flight scenes featuring Fokker Dr.I's and DVII's and somewhat based on Udet's story. Prewar Nazi propaganda.

I'ld love to see both films.

 

 

I just finished Udet's book and while it was very interesting I found it was too brief.

Nope, I have never even heard of it.

I was also just searching, and found these coloured films again. They had been posted here,

but some may not have seen this yet.
