The Devil On Wheels
Judge Roger Tanner
American-International did not invent the juvenile delinquents-jalopies-reckless driving-hot rodders-build it at home-chicken playing genre of movies. PRC and Monogram started churning them out in the mid-forties as part of their let-this-be-a-lesson-to-you genre, preceded by the zoot-suiter and jitter-buggers films, which was better than the social guidance films teen-agers were being overdosed on at school. PRC did at least use card-carrying members of SAG. This one is a sermon against speeding, and Darryl Hickman has it brought straight home to him when he side-swipes a car and causes a collision in which his best friend is killed---the fate of all best friends in juvenile-theme movies including "Rebel Without a Cause"--- and his mother is injured.

Военно-воздушные силы
Group Commander Jack Harper (uncredited)
Это один из лучших американских пропагандистских фильмов, созданных во время Второй мировой войны, как нельзя лучше подошел для режиссера Хауарда Хоукса, добившегося совершенства в постановке масштабных боевых действий. Хоукс рассказывает историю «Мэри Энн», бомбардировщика В-17, и его экипажа. Завораживающая режиссура Хоукса и уверенная, эмоциональная работа всех актеров, особенно Гарфилда и Кэри, полностью захватывают внимание зрителя. Сейчас, к сожалению, картина начинает устаревать, но сценарий Николса достаточно силен, а диалоги наполнены смыслом и достоверны. Для съемок использовалась настоящая «Летающая крепость», позже упавшая в Тихий океан и утерянная, а интерьерные съемки велись в модели стоимостью 40 тыс. долларов. Хоукс сам был ветераном военно-воздушных сил, его собственный опыт и уважение к военной авиации очевидны в каждой сцене. Эта черно-белая лента будет настоящим подарком для видеоманов, помешанных на военной тематике.
