Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

bkoganbing Bruce Cabot and Beatrice Roberts star in this B picture comedy/romance about a pilot and a stewardess with ambitions to be a pilot. Both of them get sidetracked in their romance when Roberts is offered a Hollywood contract and Cabot actually gets one.Before becoming a commercial airline pilot, Cabot was a stunt flier and during a publicity stunt when he agrees to fly movie star Astrid Allwyn to the East Coast. They're forced down and are missing for a couple of days. When they turn up alive Cabot's natural charisma comes forth on the newsreels and he gets to star opposite Allwyn in an aviation picture.All of which is too much for Roberts who even drops playboy Bill Elliott from courting her on the rebound to take up his father's offer to fly from Los Angeles to Manila solo.I can't say more other than Cabot's alpha male ego is bruised and he does something about it.Allwyn who is best known for playing Claude Rains daughter in Mr. Smith Goes To Washington gives a nice turn as an egotistical movie star. Something I'm sure she saw a great deal of in her career.This is a pleasant enough film and no doubt Roberts might have been the inspiration for Doris Day in Julia and Karen Black in Airport 75.

orlabrown Love Takes Flight is one of those 1930's Hollywood films that can't think of anything more exciting than a story about Hollywood. In this case, Hollywood, airplanes, and aircraft personnel. I was somewhat disappointed in this film, though a large part of that was simply a reflection on the attitudes of the day. Bruce Cabot is always fun to watch, even though he can come across as a bit stiff. Best of the cast, in my opinion, was Beatrice Roberts as Joan Lawson, the airline hostess.The story revolves around Joan, and Neil Bradshaw (a pilot) who are planning a record-breaking flight to Manila. Both, at different times, are offered Hollywood contracts (co-incidentally with the same producer and leading star)--one accepts, and one declines. This causes many problems, and much angst as they make decisions about their futures. Will the lure of Hollywood stars or starlets pull them apart, or can it bring them back together? Are their dreams more important than a fat paycheck from the studio? The final answers are a little forced, but it's not a bad little flick.
