Von Richthofen and Brown

Surprisingly lavish biopic from director Roger Corman examines the life of World War I flying ace Baron Von Richthofen. Better known as "the Red Baron," Richthofen became one of Germany's biggest heroes--amassing such aeronautical rivals as Herman Goering in the process. Refusing to stay on the ground and accept a government position, he continued his aerial exploits until he was shot down by Royal Canadian Air Force captain Arthur "Roy" Brown in 1918. John Philip Law, Don Stroud, Barry Primus star. AKA: "The Red Baron." 97 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; interview; theatrical trailer.
