Summary |
John Wayne adds luster to this early WWII film about the famous P-40 Flying Group who soared into battle against the Japanese in defense of China's freedom. With heroic plot lines taken straight from current events, FLYING TIGERS was well-received by both critics and audiences at the time of its release and remains a classic of the war genre. Nominated for Best Sound, Best Effects, and Best Original Score at the **Academy Awards**. *"On a patch-work story frame, Republic Pictures has strung a first-rate aerial circus chock-full of exciting dogfights." - **The New York Times*** |
