Review on ValvoMax Oil Drain Valve - Tool-Free, Mess-Free, Rapid 🔧 Draining - M16-1.50 Size - Stainless Steel Drain Hose Attachment by Jeff Talcott

In 1927, airplanes were the headlines. Charles Lindbergh made the first non-stop transatlantic flight, and Paramount Studios released one of the last great silent films, Wings. The unprecedented production of this film embodied the bold spirit of the 1920's as did Lindbergh's historic flight. He won the first Oscar for best picture and his breathtaking flight scenes remain among the best films ever made. Wings tells the story of two World War I flying friends (Buddy Rogers, Richard Arlen) and the girls they love (Clara Bow, Jobina Ralston). . This premise serves as the backdrop for the breathtaking scenes that play out on the battlefield and in the sky. Although the story is necessarily simple, it plays out with a touching sensibility, allowing us to be easily moved by all the characters. The beaming Clara Bow is doing particularly well as a long-suffering ambulance driver. Soon-to-be star Gary Cooper has a brief but memorable scene as a cadet. For those of us who watch a lot of movies, the size of WINGS comes as no surprise. Filmmaking was a pretty daring endeavor back then. Computer graphics were unknown, and rear projection or technological photography was still experimental. Often the only way to get certain footage of breathtaking nature was to film the real event, not a fake. The wings were skillfully piloted by William "Wild Bill" Wellman, himself a World War I pilot and whose crew of professional stunt pilots really took these planes to the heights we see in the film. Even lead actors Buddy Rogers and Richard Arlen had to fly their own planes for many of their scenes. The Blu-ray of the Paramount WINGS film is amazing - the clarity of the picture is overwhelming. We must be very close to what the audience saw in 1927. There are two soundtracks: an original re-recorded score by SJ Zamecnik with sound effects, and an organ score by Gaylord Carter. I prefer the zamecnik/sound effects track because it enhances the viewing experience. All features are excellent: a documentary commendable for the great effort that went into its production; also one about how it was painstakingly restored; and a segment on World War I air combat tactics. This is without a doubt a five star release that will live up to the highest expectations of any classic film fan.
