A high-flying feat of adventure filmmaking and a testament to the audacious, spare-no-expense vision of Howard Hughes, this landmark aviation epic remains exhilarating for its daredevil aerial sequences and nervy pre-Code energy. With the onset of World War I, two British brothers recruited into the Royal Flying Corps (Ben Lyon and James Hall) find their bond tested by their differing attitudes toward war—and by their shared love for the same woman, played by Jean Harlow in her bombshell breakthrough role.

The result of a notoriously long and dangerous production that claimed multiple lives, Hell’s Angels broke new technical ground with its use of early sound and color technologies and captured some of the most breathtaking dogfight scenes ever filmed. Hell’s Angels 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray presents this legendary aviation drama in a stunning restoration of its original road-show version.
