Prior to watching this film, the only silent films I had seen were City Lights, The Gold Rush and Phantom of the Opera. Charlie Chaplin and Phantom... so yeah... It was different for me, but entertaining.
Wings 1927
NR
Netflix: Wings tells the story of two men (Buddy Rogers and Richard Arlen) in love with the same woman (Clara Bow). Their rivalry grows into a wary friendship once they become fellow fighter pilots in World War I. Director William A. Wellman had the full cooperation of the U.S. War Department, which allowed him to film spectacular aerial dogfight scenes. Gary Cooper appears as a veteran pilot.
Also Nominated: The Racket, Seventh Heaven
