Movie (1942)

Wendy Barrie (FBI Agent Ann Patterson)
Nils Asther (Dr. Arthur Huneker)
Roger Pryor (G.B. Fleming)
Filmed in the first half of June 1942 but released only a year later (critics qualified it then as 'out dated'), a naive spy movie in which a kid eventually stops Nazi agents ready to guide Japanese submarine.
Curtiss P-40 Warhawk
From the command room of the headquater, the "Third Bomber Squadron" is call to take off. Next sequence, we see this stock footage of Curtiss P-40 Warhawks fighters !
American Bomber (setting)
Despite the night takeoff of a full single-seat fighter squadron, next scene begins with the simplistic setting of a long greenhouse housing a tandem crew of two.
Two other crewmen in tandem : radio operator and bomber, this last one using an unrealistic spyglass-like bombsight.
