Blackhawk Films Presents Lindbergh’s Flight and Return A Newsreel Comparison, 1934?
“Here is a rare opportunity to experience the impact of the first talking pictures; from the Blackhawk archives, you will see silent newsreel coverage by Kinograms and International News of Lindbergh’s take off and return; followed by the very first sound-on-film newsreel released by Fox Movietone, showing the same events”,
“The quintessential heroes of the 1920s were Charles A. Lindbergh and his monoplane, The Spirit of St. Louis–the team he called ‘we.’ Lindbergh, Commander Richard E. Byrd, and veteran pilot Clarence Chamberlin were among aviators from all over the world competing for a $25,000 prize offered to the first who would fly the Atlantic non-stop”,
