I watched this on a rainy afternoon... and have to say it was better than I expected. I have never followed the history of Pan Am which is what I guess this movie mirrors. Not knowing its history helped actually as I didn't have that tainting my opinion. However I am a huge Bogart fan which is why I have the movie. This is an early Bogart film where he plays the supporting role of a friend and WWI pilot who once flew alongside Dave Logan. I won't go too far into the actual story, suffice to say it's mainly about Pat O'Brien learning how to run an airline company the right way after almost losing his wife and friends. Pat plays his usual blustering character,though he plays it well. A very good movie with a great line by Pat "You should've been born twins, you'd be twice as silly." Also the one-liners between the characters Tom and Sunny add a nice touch of humor. All in all a pretty good movie with some pretty good acting and writing.
