Review of The Tarnished Angels (1957) by Matt M — 18 Aug 2013
A gripping tale of disillusionment. Douglas Sirk considered this to have been the best film he had ever made. Indeed, it is certainly among his most solid works. This Depression era set melodrama is quite remarkable for its mature portrayal of heavy undertones and themes, some of which would have been considered taboo at the time.
On top of that, the daredevil air racing sequences are quite spectacular and the performances are strong all round.
