Spirit of St. Louis, The
-- Meticulous but lengthy re-creation follows the thoughts and reflections of Charles Lindbergh (James Stewart) while making aviation history in 1927 as the pilot of the first nonstop flight from New York to Paris. Directed by Billy Wilder, Stewart manages to hold viewer interest on the solo flight across the Atlantic, partly because of the journey's dangers enroute but mostly because of the character's courage and determination in accomplishing this feat of early aviation. Some threatening situations. (A-I) (br)
