The Dawn Patrol
Richly drawn portrayals by Errol Flynn and David Niven as aces in the British Air Corps during World War I accentuate this dynamic decrial of the futility of war. Basil Rathbone co-stars as the reviled squad commander mindlessly sending his men off to die in the skies over Europe. Features stunning aerial footage, some of which was shot for Howard Hawks' version of the story eight years earlier.
