    For the love of a thot

    This is one of those "woman comes between two pilots" pictures. There were about fifty of them it seems in the 1930s alone. James Cagney's little brother plays one of the pilots. It's a part very similar to those Jimmy was playing around this time, albeit with less charisma and energy. The hilarious part about this love triangle is the woman was cheating on one guy with the other, yet the film still builds the entire plot around which guy gets her like she's a prize. A bit like winning a dollar in the lottery if you ask me.

    The characters here are not particularly likable or fun, despite acting like they think they are. You would be forgiven for thinking the military was one big college fraternity with how immature these guys act. Just a bunch of horny doofuses whose superiors seem tickled by it all. I usually enjoy aviation-related movies from the first half of the twentieth century. Those are my favorite parts of this movie. That and the rain. I assume the rain in this is legit. If not they deserved a special Oscar for creating realistic rain effects.

    Frank MacHugh's Brother Supports Jimmy Cagney's Brother

    William Cagney and Edward J. Nugent are Army Air Corps fliers, who compete over girls by playing tricks on each other/Towards the end they settle on fighting over June Collyer.

    Clearly Monogram thought they might catch lightning in a bottle by hiring Jimmy cagney's brother. While he does look a lot like his more famous brother, he is a much lower energy performer, and the resemblance hurts the movie. Nugent seems present to offer a sort of Chester Morris vibe to the production. In fact, this looks like a lot of other early 1930s military buddy movies, but the low-rent leads lack much in the way of star power, and the adventure ending has the pair in a balloon -- I suppose Monogram couldn't afford to rent a dirigible.

    WIlliam Cagney made only five movies before he became a producing partner for brother Jimmy. He died in 1988, aged 82.

    Reasonable B-Feature

    This is a reasonably good B-feature that combines some light comedy with some romantic melodrama. It moves slowly at times, and doesn't always fit together, but it has some redeeming features.

    The story concerns two military pilots, one played by William Cagney, who looks very much like his brother, but who never manages quite the screen presence. The two work together on a lot of hazardous assignments, and when on the ground find themselves in constant competition over women. For much of the film, they simply play practical jokes on each other in their rivalries over women. Much of it is predictable, but often amusing anyway. Then things get more serious, when one of the pilots cannot forgive the hurt caused by one of these romantic misfires, and just afterwards they must go on an especially hazardous mission together.

    It's nothing special, but there's probably enough here to make it worth a try if you enjoy 30's-style movies.

    Not particularly good or inspired

    There really are only two reasons to see this slight B-movie. First, if you are curious to see Jimmy Cagney's brother (William) act, this is one of the few films he made before becoming an agent. Second, if you are really excited by aviation and ballooning, then you might find this of some interest. Otherwise, the film simply isn't good enough to go out of your way to see it and it is, at best, a time-filler.

    William Cagney plays a somewhat obnoxious aviator (Soapy Cooper). He spends most of the film trying to steal girls away from his VERY unfortunately named friend (Dick Wood). However, this plot seems lifted from a Jimmy Cagney film and William's screen presence just isn't as good--though he bears a pretty close resemblance to his famous brother.

    Oddly, late in the film, Soapy falls for a lady who is, unknown to him, Dick's fiancée. Dick gets all bent out of shape and this spoils their friendship--though the film seriously neglects one VERY important point. How can Dick be so outraged when he, himself, has been chasing skirts throughout the film!? In other words, though secretly engaged to a lady, he is constantly chasing any lady who breathes! Nice guy, huh?! It all works itself out (naturally) in the end and according to a tried and true formula, all are friends and the credits roll.

    Strengths are the ballooning segments and,....well,... nothing else. Deficits are pedestrian writing and acting as well as a formulaic plot that makes little sense at times.

    • Trivia
      The high altitude balloon flight seen in this film was real, and footage from the actual preparation and flight is used here. The National Geographic Society and the US Army collaborated on the mission. There were two flights, Explorer 1 and Explorer 2, launched in 1934 and 1935 respectively. Explorer 1 almost lead to disaster when the balloon burst and the hydrogen gas caught fire. The three men in the capsule were able to escape via parachute, the third man escaping just barely in time, at a mere 500 feet above the ground. The second flight used helium and was more rigorously checked for safety. Explorer 2 successfully reached a height of 72,395 feet, a record that stood for twenty years. The two-man crew were the first humans to see the curvature of the Earth, and gathered a large amount of scientific data on the stratosphere. The balloon landed safely without the dramatic elements seen in this film.
    • Errores
      Immediately after Soapy and Woody fly through hours of heavy downpour, described as the "worst storm in years", Soapy drives into town in his convertible and leaves it with the top down. The weather is fine.

      Gretchen: Could I sing something just for you?

      Gretchen: I'm afraid I don't know it, but I can sing Down By the Old Mill Stream.

      Lt. Tom 'Soapy' Cooper: No, that's not far enough.
