The Air Circus
''The Air Circus'' is a 1928 American feature film directed by Howard Hawks, the first of his aviation films.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Air Circus )〕
The plot concerns two students (Arthur Lake and David Rollins), encountering an accomplished aviator (Sue Carol) in flight school and learning to fly.
''The Air Circus'' is Hawks' seventh feature, and the first with sound dialog. The film was completely finished as a silent when the studio commissioned dialog from screenwriter F. Hugh Herbert and assigned Lewis Seiler to insert 15 minutes of talking footage, which Hawks considered "mawkish".〔''Howard Hawks: The Grey Fox of Hollywood'', Todd McCarthy, p. 94〕
==Reception==
''The Air Circus'' received generally positive reviews from critics. Mordaunt Hall of ''The New York Times'' called it "a jolly, wholesome and refreshingly human picture", praising David Rollins' acting as "wonderfully natural." ''Film Daily'' said the film was well-acted with "a bang-up youth cast from all angles" and a "thrill finish." Oliver Claxton of ''The New Yorker'' wrote that the talking sequence was "the most unfortunate scene", but that the rest of the film "should amuse you in a quiet way." ''Variety'' was more modest in its praise, writing, "Expert direction has managed to make a fairly interesting lightweight number out of a script that holds nothing but background and a plot that doesn't exist."
