Only Angels Have Wings (1939) starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur, Rita Hayworth. Directed by Howard Hawks. Fliers in South America brave dangerous conditions, including mountains and fog, to get the mail through. Grant is Carter, the leader of the pilots, and Arthur is the blond showgirl who arrives by boat and stays to pursue Carter. It's an entertaining movie, and some of the flying scenes are actually exciting. The subtitles are the best kind for a black-and-white movie: yellow with a black outline. Very legible. Grade: B+
