The Air Circus
The Air Circus is a 1928 American feature film directed by Howard Hawks, the first of his aviation films.
The Air Circus received generally positive reviews from critics. Mordaunt Hall of The New York Times called it a jolly, wholesome and refreshingly human picture, praising David Rollins acting as wonderfully natural. Film Daily said the film was wellacted with a bangup youth cast from all angles and a thrill finish. Oliver Claxton of The New Yorker wrote that the talking sequence was the most unfortunate scene, but that the rest of the film should amuse you in a quiet way. Variety was more modest in its praise, writing, Expert direction has managed to make a fairly interesting lightweight number out of a script that holds nothing but background and a plot that doesnt exist.Various sources classify it as lost. However, Hal Erickson states the silent version was rescued from oblivion in the early 1970s. ........
