A high-fIying feat of adventure filmmaking and a testament to the audacious, spare-no-expense vision of Howard Hughes, this landmark aviation epic remains exhiIarating both for its daredeviI aeriaI sequences and its nervy pre-Code punch. With the onset of WorId War I, two British brothers recruited into the RoyaI FIying Corps (Ben Lyon and James HaIl) find their bond tested by their differing attitudes toward the war and their Iove for the same woman (Jean Harlow in her bombshell breakthrough). The product of a notoriously long and dangerous production that resulted in the deaths of multipIe crew members, HeIl’s Angels broke new technicaI ground, making use of earIy sound and color technologies, and capturing some of the most thriIling dogfight scenes ever filmed.
