Director: Henri Decoin Starring: Pierre Fresnay, Georges Marchal, Robert Arnoux, Paul Azaïs, André Bervil Synopsis 1920.  Gilbert Carbot is the driven manager of a small aviation company in Toulouse.  He assures his customers that he can deliver letters anywhere quickly, whatever the obstacles, even at the risk of his pilots’ safety.  Carbot is a cold and distant man.  His pilots, who work under severe pressure, live at Le Grand Balcon, a hotel owned by two sisters Adeline and Françoise.  Jean Fabien is the best of Carbot’s pilots.  The two men may have frequent differences of opinion but they also have a secret admiration for each other.  After Spain, Carbot’s aeroplanes are now flying to Casablanca and Dakar.  When Didier, a younger pilot who is the nephew of Adeline and Françoise, is murdered, Jean suspects that Carbot may be responsible... © Willems Henri (Brussels, Belgium) Credits Director: Henri Decoin Script: Joseph Kessel, Marcel Rivet Photo: Nicolas Hayer Music: Joseph Kosma Cast: Pierre Fresnay (Carbot), Georges Marchal (Jean Fabien), Robert Arnoux (Vuillemin), Paul Azaïs (Morel), André Bervil (Triolet), Pierre Cressoy (Charlier), Janine Crispin (Maryse), Suzanne Dehelly (Mlle Françoise), Arsenio Freignac (Le lieutenant espagnol), Manuel Gary (Goupil), Jean Gaven (Belfort), Émile Genevois (Contact), Abel Jacquin (Darbouin), Jean-Pierre Mocky, Nina Myral (Mme Viard), Félix Oudart (Garandoux), Sylvain (Le photographe), Jacques Tarride (Macherel), Jean Vinci (Faivret) Country: France Language: French Runtime: 123 min; B&W More French Drama
