| Plot |
| Amongst the very best of the Battle of Britain war epics and one informed by director George More O'Ferrall's own WWII experience at Fighter Command HQ, Angels One Five offers a slice-of-life depiction of aerial combat.The title refers to the cognomen bestowed upon a group of British fighter pilots whose squadron leader, Tiger Small (Jack Hawkins) is taken out of commission after an accident. Despite the protests from his fellow flyboys, Tiger insists upon taking to the air again, therby setting the stage for the film's exciting and inspirational finale.The tense, nrevous atmosphere is expertly created by the device of having most of the action take place off-screen with the progress of the principal characters relayed via radio reports and control-room charts. |
