Soaring Stars (1943)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Cheap "show off our stars" short from Warner has a pair of autograph hunters (Sally Payne, Mary Treen) at a race track where various Hollywood stars are watching an aviation contest. The two are there to get some signatures but accidentally find themselves caught up in a bracelet that was stolen from Ruth Hussey. There's really not too much "story" going on here as the main reason to see the film is due to the stars that make brief (sometimes just seconds) cameos. Edmund Lowe, Irene Hervey, Bonita Granville, Jackie Cooper, Joe E. Brown, John Carroll, Freddie Bartholomew and Richard Arlen are among the famous faces showing up. If you're a fan of any of these you might want to give this a spin but I doubt others will get too much entertainment out of this thing.
