NOW WE'RE IN THE AIR 1927 Beery & Hatton, Louise Brooks
Starring Paramount's house team of Wallace Beery & Raymond Hatton, the attraction for most audiences today is the (too-brief) appearance of Louise Brooks. Approximately 22 minutes of the feature, based on elements from reels 2, 3 and 6, preserved in the Czech Film Archives, discovered by film preservationist Robert Byrne, and restored by The San Francisco Silent Film Festival. Screened at the festival in 2017. Posted on Vimeo by Silent Robert.
Coincidentally MGM's ROOKIES, released the same year and starring that studio's team of Karl Dane & George K. Arthur, featured a prolonged climax with the duo also trapped in a runaway balloon.
