Must have aviation movies

Tell you how GIMCP was written BJ. Bob was approached by Charlie Scribner.
Scribner told Bob he had a great story to tell and handed Scotty a bunch of
those cylinder things for the talking machines and locked Bob in a room at
the Waldorf in New York. Bob wrote the whole damn story in one weekend
locked in that room! Then Jack Warner got in on it and the rest is history.
A funny aside to all this is that Warner Bros hired Richard Loo, the great
Asian actor to do the Tokyo Joe "ace" part in the picture and Bob has spent
the rest of his life on the lecture circuit telling people that he didn't
ACTUALLY shoot down Tokyo Joe!! :-))

Sadly, it seems that much of the average American's knowledge of history
is gained via the silver screen. Ever since I was 10 or 11 and saw a
blatant historical error in a movie, it's ****ed me off when I think
that someone got paid mega bucks to create an enduring version of
history that any literate person would know is false.
