Harlow The Blonde Bombshell The Documentary 1993 Part 1
Hell's Angels is a 1930 American pre-Code independent epic war film directed and produced by Howard Hughes, with James Whale directing the dialogue. Written by Harry Behn and Howard Estabrook and starring Ben Lyon, James Hall and Jean Harlow, it was released through United Artists. The film was originally shot as a silent film, but Hughes retooled it over a three-year (1927–1930) gestation; most of the footage is black-and-white but there are several one-color-tinted scenes chosen for dramatic effect, such as a nighttime gun duel, as well as part-screen full-color for the flames consuming an Imperial German Zeppelin and full-screen full-color for one sequence: the only color footage of Harlow's career.
A "10-minute intermission" breaks the film after just over an hour. Notoriety surrounded the production from the start. The World War I German enemy was depicted as both immoral and foolish. Several stunt pilots died in accidents. There was a lawsuit against a competing film (The Dawn Patrol), the release date was repeatedly postponed, the budget overran, and inevitably the film failed to recover its exorbitant costs. Nevertheless Hell's Angels was one of the highest-grossing films of the early sound era and is today justly hailed as a landmark of early sound, of early color use, and of the epic action film genre. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell%27s_Angels_(film)
