Storyline

In the 1930s, once-great World War I pilot Roger Shumann performs as a daredevil barnstorming pilot at aerial stunt shows while his wife, LaVerne, works as a parachutist. When newspaper reporter Burke Devlin arrives to do a story on the Shumanns’ act, he quickly falls in love with the beautiful--and neglected--LaVerne.

One of Douglas Sirk's masterworks.

RTThe New YorkerJan 21, 2013

An enduring philosophical strain of proto-feminist endurance in a land that's both made and menaced by its intrepid warriors.

Sirk's film is easily one of the earlier examples of a film that committed itself to such a stark and authentic presentation.

The Tarnished Angels also retains its Faulkneresque signature of three damaged souls who feed off one another's misery, and it's an interesting leap from his more famous barn burning for the archaic sport of barnstorming.
