Only Angels Have Wings (1939) - Columbia Classics [RE-UP]

Close

Geoff Carter (Grant) is a pilot and the manager of a small, barely solvent air service owned by "Dutchy" Van Reiter (Sig Ruman) carrying mail from the South American port town of Barranca over the Andes Mountains. Bonnie Lee (Arthur), a piano-playing entertainer, arrives one day and becomes infatuated with Carter, despite his fatalistic attitude about the dangerous mountain flying, and stays on in Barranca (not at Carter's invitation, as he insists on telling her).

The situation is complicated by the appearance of Bat MacPherson (Richard Barthelmess) and his wife Judy (Rita Hayworth). MacPherson is a pilot shunned by other fliers because he once bailed out of a plane, leaving his mechanic — the brother of "Kid" Dabb (Thomas Mitchell), Carter's best friend — to be killed in the resulting crash. When Geoff is forced to ground Kid because of failing eyesight, he is short on pilots and agrees to hire MacPherson on the condition that he fly the most dangerous missions. MacPherson understands and accepts the setup: none of the other pilots would shed a tear if he were lost.

Dutchy will secure a lucrative government mail contract that would put the airline on a solid financial footing if he can provide reliable service during a trial period. On the last day of the trial, bad weather closes the mountain pass. Geoff plans to fly a new Ford Trimotor over the mountains at an altitude of 17,000 feet. Kid asks to go with him, as co-pilot. When Geoff refuses him, Kid suggests letting the toss of a coin decide the matter. Geoff tries to grab the coin in mid-air. However, it lands on the floor, and he picks it up and finds that it has two heads — which would insure Kid’s being on board the Trimotor flight. Realizing how important it is to Kid, Geoff agrees to take him along. Just before leaving, Bonnie tries to talk Geoff out of going.

As they hug, she takes his gun out of his holster, points it at him and tells Geoff that she won't let him go. Knowing that she really can't stop him, she lowers the gun. However, when she drops the gun down on a table, it accidentally fires, hitting Geoff in the shoulder. Unable to fly, Geoff agrees to let Bat and Kid try flying over the mountains instead. However, they are unable to climb above 15,600 feet before the plane takes an unexpected dive. Kid radios Geoff and tells him that the plane could not make it high enough to go over mountains.

Although Geoff tells them to turn around and return, Kid and Bat decide to try to fly through the fogged in pass. On the way through, they encounter a flock of Condors with one crashing through the wind-shield, injuring Kid and another starting one of their engines on fire. Kid tells Bat to bail out, but Bat refuses, turns the plane around and manages to land the burning plane back in Barranca. Kid dies from a broken neck, but not before telling Geoff of Bat's heroism. As a result, Bat is finally welcomed by the others.

Bonnie is torn between leaving and staying, and confronts Geoff in hopes that he will ask her to stay. However, Geoff is quoted earlier as saying that "he would never ask a women for anything", and doesn't make the request she is hoping for. Then the weather clears and Geoff is about to rush out to secure the all-important contract. Before he goes, he offers to toss a coin to decide: heads, she stays; tails, she leaves. Bonnie is unwilling to decide her life so haphazardly, saying with tears "I'm hard to get, Jeff – all you have to do is ask me!" As he leaves, Geoff gives her the coin as a "souvenir".

At first she is distraught, but then she is thrilled when she discovers that the coin has heads on both sides and was Geoff's way of asking her to stay.
Only Angels Have Wings is a 1939 American drama film directed by Howard Hawks, and starring Cary Grant and Jean Arthur, based on a story written by Hawks.

Only Angels Have Wings was based on a number of real incidents witnessed by Hawks, and although Air Mail (1932), Night Flight (1933) and Flight From Glory (1937) have similar stories, they are not related. The film inspired the 1983 television series Tales of the Gold Monkey, which in turn, inspired the 1990 television series TaleSpin.
