Ils étaient quatre frères

When the film begins, the four McDonald brothers are working as barnstormers in the 1920s*. However, the work is super dangerous and they decide to try something only marginally safer...flying the US Mail. In those days, planes had very little safety equipment or instruments and every time they fly, they take a risk. Colin (William Holden) does something the others don't...he gets married. But what sort of a life is it to be the wife of a crazy pilot? And, what sort of life expectancy will he and his brothers have?

This is a decent sort of film though I've seen a few others which are similar enough that I don't exactly see "Blaze of Noon" as a must-see. Instead, it's a decent time-passer and it's a nice change to learn about flying in the 'good old days'.

*As IMDB noted, although set in the 20s, everything looks like it is from 1947 and the filmmakers did NOTHING to try to capture the look of the 20s.
