"Wings" combines two then-emerging, innovative technologies – the airplane and the moving picture – into one cinematic experience!

The immortal Clara Bow stars as Mary Preston, a sweet “girl next door” and Army ambulance driver desperately in love with a dashing young airman from her hometown. The airman, played by Charles “Buddy” Rogers, and his rival-turned-friend played by Richard Arlen, experience intense training and heart-stopping air battles during their time in the service.

Fun Fact: "Wings" was the first film to ever win the Academy Award for Best Picture and remains the only fully silent film to do so.
