A must-see movie for any World War II buff.
More than half a century after the happening, for anyone who still can’t get enough of World War II, this is a movie not to be missed.It tells the story of what happens to an RAF crew on a bombing mission over Europe. That story is told with skill and even though the movie was made clear back in 1942, its technical aspects still hold up beyond the millennium (something which cannot be said for many World War II movies that were made during, and even after, the happening). All credit for this movie belongs to the brilliant British (well, one Brit and one Hungarian by birth) writing- producing-directing team of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.
Two other movies in this genre that immediately come to mind and which likewise should not be missed by any World War II “junkie,” are: “Command Decision” (1948) and “Twelve O’Clock High” (1949). The only difference(s) between these latter two and the one being reviewed are that the latter two are American movies (set in England) while “Aircraft” is a British effort (set in England and, well, Europe). Also, unlike “Aircraft,” which was made during the height of the war, these latter two were made a few years following the war’s conclusion.
Other than those quite minor differences, all three of these movies belong atop any World War IIite’s must-see list.
