Synopsis

Only Angels Have Wings is a superb study of grace under pressure, telling the tale of a pilot named Geoff Carter who makes his living delivering mail across the mountains of the Andes in a small plane. Carter can handle the terrifying nature of his job - but what he can't deal with is the arrival of Bonnie Lee, a piano player who makes it no secret that she's fallen for him, and a disgraced pilot whose wife Geoff was once involved with. Director Howard Hawks was himself a former pilot, and this gripping adventure yarn crackles with realism.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
