Featured review
" I could be bounded in a nutshell and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams"
Warner Baxter is a pilot in the Great War, with a gradually rising count of enemy planes downed. But when his best friend is shot down and killed by "The Baron", Baxter is trapped between his fears, his dreams, and the regard his fellow officers hold him in.
Baxter gives a great performance in a good movie. The events in this movie had become a popular theme since the success of WINGS and HELL'S ANGELS. While this movie is nothing special in terms of overall production, there are some fine performances in it. Ralph Morgan is wonderful as the quiet commanding officer; and Baxter's scene, getting drunk after he thinks he has shot down the Baron, touches the edges of hysteria in a telling manner that only big, stolid-looking actors like he and Richard Dix could pull off.
