+russouk2004 Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Not best ever ww2 film...P-51s as Bf-109 lol.....but best collection of real jugs in one scene gotta be good. 4 Quote
Wrench Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 A very rare film, even Turner Classic Movies don't play it too often. And not available on VHS or DVD. If anyone every sees it listed, TRY and watch it. Not the best war film but good flying sequences. Sharp eyes will also note Jack Larson, who play Jimmy Olsen in the 1950s Superman series. and that darn cat!! 1 Quote
Mike Dora Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Like especially the taxiing scene, with a whole lot of P-47s weaving from side to side to see where they’re going. Also love the cockpit closeups with their Hollywood supersized canopies! Edited July 5, 2020 by Mike Dora 1 Quote
+Geary Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 I have this movie. An old favorite. One of the best to show off the P-47. Don't much care for the cliché acting, but great jug scenes. Quote
Wrench Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 IMDB says that it's Rock Hudson's debut film. Don't know exactly where he's at, but maybe something to do with the Sargent and the cat? What I love in that film clip above is the 'standard Warner Bros" music used in dozens of films (catch "Dive Bomber" for one of the earlier uses), I think it was also used in Operation Pacific, but would have to watch the movie again (*) (*) like that's a problem!!!

+Jimbib Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Found this upload of the full film on YouTube. 1 Quote
