often when a classic movie be forget there be a good reason for it . however this be not the case with eagle and the hawk . sure it no masterpiece but it a pretty solid wwi movie that focus on the reality of war . it remind me somewhat of all quiet on the western front . it not quite as good a that but it have similar theme . the movie star fredric march and cary grant . cary grant be probably the more well know star today but back in 1933 march be the big name and he be the main star with grant a the support player . i love cary grant and he do a pretty good job here play a character that be not completely sympathetic . this be the type of part that you would not really see from him later in his career . however march be the real star of this picture and he be absolutely fantastic a a soldier who slowly lose his nerve . it a real shame march be not well remember today . overall march and grant have great on screen chemistry and interact well a two wwi pilot who dislike each other yet respect the others ability . the end in my opinion be also quite memorable . the only sour point of the film be a small cameo by carole lombard . don not get me wrong i be a big fan of lombard but her part be pretty pointless here and it doesn not mesh with the rest of the film . it just seem the writer want to add a little romance to the movie whether it fit or not .
