Review of Only Angels Have Wings (1939) by Matthew C — 07 Mar 2010
Cary Grant leads another excellent cast in this tale of pilots flying against the odds in a dangerous land; men who live with death so close it almost loses its meaning. Some gorgeous flying footage and good model work help the filmâ??s rich, stylized reality.
And Cary Grant and Jean Arthur make an attractive couple. "I'm hard to get, Geoff. All you have to do is ask me." Great line. Rita Hayworth pops up as an old flame, and she darned well burns hot.
A fine movie all around and strongly recommended.
