The Eagle and the Hawk is a 1933 film directed by Stuart Walker and Mitchell Leisen.Jerry Young (Fredric March) and Henry Crocker (Cary Grant) are volunteers with the Royal Flying Corps in World War I. Jerry is critical of Henry's piloting skills, resulting in Henry not being selected to go to France as a pilot. Henry punches Jerry in the face and bears him a lasting grudge.Jerry and the rest of the unit go to France. Jerry is the pilot in a two-man crew with the second man being the "observer" who takes reconnaissance pictures (the main point of the flights) and mans the machine gun. Jerry doesn't even have time to unpack before he goes up on a flight, and his observer is killed. Later another of Jerry's observers is killed. Then another, and another, and another. The deaths of five men in the back seat of Jerry's plane leave him with a severe case of shell-shock, drinking heavily and suffering from nightmares. Jerry gets a little more stress when Henry Crocker joins the unit as an observer.Carole Lombard, still a year away from her Star-Making Role in Twentieth Century, appears briefly as a gorgeous socialite who notices Jerry at a party in London. | |

Catapult Nightmare | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_2c9e262 | comment |
Catapult Nightmare: A pretty disturbing one in which Jerry does not wake up. Instead he bolts up and, while still asleep but with eyes wide open, starts screaming as if he were in his plane on a flight. | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_372bc105 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: A very cynical anti-war film. Jerry gives a reluctant speech to the replacements about how they're "fighting for humanity" that he clearly believes is bullshit. The movie ends with a shot of a hometown monument to Jerry saying that he "gallantly gave his life in combat to save the world for democracy", when in reality he killed himself. | |

Worthy Opponent | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_4604fd4d | comment |
Worthy Opponent: A particularly courageous German pilot pursues Jerry's plane all the way back to the RFC base. As the German finally breaks off and turns around, he and Jerry salute each other. | |

Smoking Is Cool | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_596f675a | comment |
Smoking Is Cool: The Beautiful Lady jumps into Jerry's cab unannounced. Jerry, nonplussed, asks if she needs to be dropped off someplace. She says "I don't want to be dropped. I want a cigarette." He lights a cigarette for her and then lights one for himself, and it plays like a mating ritual. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: It's the Downer Ending. Jerry snaps and shoots himself. Henry piles Jerry's dead body into a plane, takes the plane up, then shoots Jerry with the machine gun to make it look like Jerry was killed in combat. | |

Fatal Family Photo: Played straight. Kingsford, Jerry's first observer, is looking at a photo of his wife and child right before the flight. He's killed. | |

New Meat | |
| The Eagle and the Hawk / int_bf609406 | comment |
New Meat: Taken to the extreme. Five painfully young, wide-eyed replacements join the unit. Jerry, meeting them at the officer's club, gives a half-hearted pep talk. Then a bomb falls on the club. All five of the replacements are killed before they ever get to fly. | |

Brick Joke: Mike is seen reading some kind of dirty book called "A Night in a Turkish Harem". Later he's teaching Fifi the French waitress English by having her read that book. | |
