Good B movie
3 May 2015
Movie was entertaining to watch, caught it on TCM. Really enjoyed the vintage aircraft scenes. Everybody smoking on flights in those days; must have been a joy trying to breath. Rod Steiger definitely was the highlight of this film, his performance was stellar. One comment about Robert Ryan, knowing that he was a WW2 Marine Drill instructor. The way he handled the revolver was hilarious, in one scene when he requests a fellow cast member to follow him he actually pokes him in the belly with it. If I was a former Marine I would have railed against that kind of direction. Oh well, just a B movie, but I would have thought he would handle his weapon better than that of a fellow actor in "Plan 9 From Outer Space". ROFL
