The Great Waldo Pepper Reviews
Why is it so difficult to get so many of the really great movies on DVD?
This movie is pure pleasure for young, old, male or female. It would be nice if movies like this would come out in widescreen DVD for those who appreciate what movies were intended to do. ENTERTAIN. The flying sequences are marvelous. Redford is great, as always and the storyline is wonderful. Let's get this released in widescreen ASAP please.
Where the Hell is the DVD?????
Considering the original release was from Goodtimes, it's probably not a bad thing that this movie isn't available cause Goodtimes $#%^$!
Redford plays a former WWI flyer addicted to the skies and forced in to barnstorming after he comes home from the war, only to find that the gubment is now dictating who/when/where you go in your airplane via the newly formed CAB (now the FAA) whose local rep is a former pal/acquaintance of Waldo, who eventually grounds him after an accident, causing him to seek stealth employment on a movie set where he finds former combatant and German ace Ernst Kessler.
The aerial scenes are incredible, the best this side of the Blue Max. Terrific supporting cast that includes Bo Svenson, Susan Sarandon, and Geoffrey Lewis but this flick is all Redford. A hint of mystery overlaps the straight ahead action because we dont know a lot about Redford's character. That's OK, it all works. 5 Scarfs
