Flying Tigers

This would be the first and many say the best of John Wayne's war films. A fine bit of pre-war studio propaganda from director David Miller, FLYING TIGERS would give the world a glimpse of what was to come from the future iconic Wayne and when seen should be given some leg room considering it was made in 1942. A simple moral tale of why Americans are fighting a war not their own, it's core message, agree with it or not, still rings true. Fine support from John Carroll and Anna Lee, this baby will provide you with some nice vintage hard nosed testoterone drama as long as you can get past the Asian stereotpyes.
