VHS Movie Reviews of Test Pilot [VHS]
Movie Review: Cast Pulls Through
Summary: 4 Stars
It is a simple story, really. Jim (Clark Gable) and Gunner (Spencer Tracy) are test pilots. They risk their lives for thrills and a quick buck. Jim loves women and Gunner loves Jim. Howard Drake (Lionel Barrymore) is their mentor, and he knows them through and through. He doesn't quite believe it when Jim marries Ann (Myrna Loy), a farmgirl from Kansas, but over time he realizes the true bond they have with each other. It is too bad Jim will never lose his love for the sky and the adrenaline rush he gets when he flies.
This weak storyline is carried off with great effect by the excellent cast. MGM boasted that it had more stars than were in the heavens, and they knew how to exhibit them. Gable is brash and masculine in his role, the perfect ladies man. Loy plays the part she always played, the perfect wife with an understanding heart. Tracy has the most difficult job here, because his character's love for his friend seems much more intense than that of a normal friendship. He balances the tricky situation brilliantly. Barrymore suffered greatly from his arthritis during this time period, so most of his scenes are done sitting down in cars, but it is nice to see him nonetheless.
