Because for the present version not a plane had to leave the ground, and not a stunt flier had to be used. And this in a picture of aerial thrills! The two gigantic bombing sequences, the great fight of Errol Flynn to his death—both these were taken with the rest from the st “Dawn Patrol” and cleverly blended with the new dramatic action on the ground. s done and yet, as such Not even the entire cast was new, at that. Important in the is Von Richter, the German ace. He is unidentified in the present cast, and after inquiry around T still don’t know what now unknown actor played the role and is enjoying a “revival.” Howard Hawks, who directed the first “Dawn Patrol,” can’t recall either. Hawks, by coincidence, again is involved in aerial drama. I found him on a double-sized stage at Columbia, directing one tentatively titled “Plane No. 4, the east including—also by co- incidence—the same Barthelmess who was his star nine years ago. Barthelmess’s role here is a “character”—the stars of today are Jean Arthur and Cary Grant. The sound stage of “Plane No. 4" is a match, or continuation, for a huge outdoor set representing a South American seaport, L e stor: your favorite ===- Perhaps the greatest test of any product is: “Do the people who use it like it?"

It's one of the most elaborate “interior and exterior” combinations of the sort yet devised, and thanks to a huge cyclorama it brings the snow- capped Andes under roof. Also under roof is a ramshackle native tavern—run in the script by a Dutchman who looks, under his whiskers, like Sig Rumann—several native shacks, and an entire forest of jungle vegetation and flowers. Dallying there briefly, I was privileged to see and hear a most remarkable impromptu orchestra (impromptu, heck! it’s all in the script) fiddling and banging away. At the piano sat Maestro Grant, who actually tickles the keys meanly but to no avail as all the piano-playing has to be done off-stage for the mike’s sake. Behind stood handsome John Carroll, the singer. Into this hot melee of “Some of These Days” strolled cool- locking Jean Arthur (I guessed she was the girl who got stranded there, but yow'll have to wait-and see) and made Cary move over while she showed him how. Alas, Jean's playing was as silent as Cary's—but just as good to look at. In a little while everybody was going to get all wet. This is a fog-wind-rain epic, as well as aerial. But I couldn’t wait to report 6n that. Catch cold too easily. Besides—what are Grant, Arthur, Barthelmess et als getting paid for?
