The Last Flight
1931, English. Directed by William Dieterle.
IMPORTANT! "The Last Flight," excepting for the few opening scenes, IS NOT A WAR PICTURE!
WWI pilots Cary, Shep, Bill, and Francis, traumatized by the devastation of the war, head to Paris instead of home, where they meet the eccentric and wealthy Nikki, who is drawn to Cary. The five friends, tagged by boorish reporter Frink, drink their way from Paris to Lisbon.
