Fair to Middling Rescue Flick
Caught this one on TCM last night. While a little goofy in places and hampered by some unnecessary naration, and the sight of Andy Devine in a bathing suit that will give you nightmares for a week, it still manages to be a rather effective arial rescue and survival picture. Would make a nice double feature with Flight of the Phoenix. Some interesting characterizations in the rescue pilots, among them Lloyd Nolan and James Arness. You could do worse.
