Vince Barnett is an actor whose name few would recognize today. However, if you are a fan of old Hollywood films of the 1930s, you have no doubt seen him. Usually he played goofy sidekicks or comic relief--though in an odd casting against type, he actually had a large role in the gangster film "Scarface"! Here, Vince is playing a typically goofy role EXCEPT he is the star of this short! The film begins with an announcer talking about barnstormers and stunt pilots. As he talks, you see various stunts performed by the planes--and he describes the action. But, soon after he begins, Vince appears as a dopey cameraman and he almost gets himself killed again and again--ANYTHING in order to get the shot.
The film is far from brilliant but is a bit funny here and there. Just don't expect any depth or sophistication and you'll probably enjoy it.
