I have been a long-time Aviation Lover. I was fully aware of Douglas Bader. I remember seeing the movie many years ago (possibly in a theater). I enjoyed the opportunity to purchase the DVD. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed watching it.

Kenneth Moore did an excellent job of portraying Bader, especially his agony during his transition into an invalid and then into a person with legs again, albeit "tin" ones. This was one movie that I was able to almost "live" with the hero and share his life with him. Great acting.

Uplifting story of a man who lost both legs in an aircraft crash. Who went on to fly again in combat during WWII. Full length movie, over twenty minutes longer than TCM version. Must watch.

Very nicely done-especially noteworthy is the high degree of correlation between the movie and the book of the same name. Not often seen, and refreshing. I’d reccommend finding both as the book naturally fleshes out the story a bit more.....but I’d rate this film among the very best of it’s kind and especially nice to have on dvd.
