Rating:  - Top-flight entertainment! Keep your flaps up!
I absolutely adore this film. Jane Wyman is so adorable. She plays a spunky, all-American girl stewardess in this film that stays off the ground more than on it. Howard Keel is very sexy as her favorite pilot (Mike #1, as I affectionately call him). Keel has, in other movies--especially his musicals--displayed a tendency to overact. Not so in this picture, in which he is extremely masculine and likeable. Van Johnson, who has had the same problem, is very sweet here. For some reason I have never bought into the ultra-suave characters he has played in other films, such as the ones with Esther Williams, but he is adorable as a cute nerd. Mike #3 is the one that virtually no one cares about, and I can't remember who plays him for the life of me. It is actually difficult to predict who Jane will end up with, which is refreshing. I alternated between rooting for Howard and Van, but I think the best man wins out in the end. Please watch this movie! You'll love it!
Rating: - Delightful Romantic Comedy
I love Jane Wyman! This movie is very sweet. This is definitely a movie for women to enjoy. Unlike the previous reviewer/Howard Keel fanatic, In my opinion, the choice became clear, little by little, through subtle means, which Mike was right, and the last scene clinched it. I don't know the quality of this tape, but the movie itself is a keeper. This is one of those they-don't-make-'em-like-they-used-to's! I wish more of Jane Wyman's movies were available; she was such a good actress.
Rating: - A very entertaining and good film!
I very highly recommend this film. It is entertaining and
a all around good film. It's also a great film for anyone who is in aviation. I'd give it more stars if I could.
Rating: - An American Airline Stewardess Must!
A jaunty and humorous romp with early screen debuts that tickle and tease, and delight any and every American Airline Stewardess or Captain working for the company. A delightful gift, and a real giggle for the Airline Professional in your family or acquaintance. Don't miss this classic dream for every young girl growing up in 50's America!
Rating:  - Warm and Wonderful!
Funny and smart, a "great escape"! Jane Wyman really lights up the screen! I was a stewardess in 1964/65 and this movie brought back memories of a time when "service with a smile" meant something!
