China Clipper (1936)
Less than a year after the inaugural flight of Pan American Airwaysâ China Clipper captured the publicâs interest, Warner Bros. crafted a fictional version of the famed seaplaneâs feat and sent it winging into theaters. Pat OâBrien plays Dave Logan, an aviation visionary and taskmaster who puts his career ahead of his personal life as, he launches a small aviation outfit and sees it grow to match his dream of trans-Pacific commercial flight. Ross Alexander, whose promising career would soon tragically end, portrays Loganâs right-hand man. And Humphrey Bogart, in a departure from the typical criminal roles in his 1930s filmography, plays the ex-barnstormer and top-echelon pilot who guides the China Clipperâs maiden journey.
