  • ""Based on an actual event occurring in 1935, this curious French film tells the story of a female pilot who, supported by her husband, a provincial garage-owner, wins the world solo flying record for women. While it is the chef-d'oeuvre of Jean Grémillon (considered by many to be one of the finest French filmmakers of the Thirties and Forties), Le Ciel Est à Vous has remained all but unknown outside of France. Georges Sadoul, in his "Dictionary of Films," explains: "The fighting in the spring and summer of 1944 disorganized the French cinema and prevented this beautiful film from achieving the success it deserved. Its images have much of the feeling of neorealism but its lack of success prevented it from becoming the seminal film of a French neorealist movement"--Pacific Film Archive program note."
  • "Thérèse et Pierre sont expropriés de leur garage à la place duquel va se construire un aérodrome. Ils s'installent à la ville voisine. Mais Pierre retrouve sa passion pour l'aviation."
  • "A bourgeois couple suddenly develop a passion for flying. Therese becomes a pilot and eventually breaks the women's non-stop, long distance filght record."
  • "The wife of a mechanic and former fighter pilot falls in love with the idea of flying herself. This soon becomes an obsession, and she undertakes a lofty feat: the longest solo flight ever made by a woman."
  • ""A la suite d'une expropriation pour création d'un terrain d'aviation, Gauthier part avec sa femme vivre en ville. Bientôt, il se laisse entraîner à son ancienne passion et donne des baptêmes de l'air. Sa femme le lui reproche, mais va à son tour succomber au charme de voler."--[allociné.fr]. Avec Madeleine Renaud, Charles Vanel, Jean Debucourt, Raymonde Vernay, Léonce Corne, Raoul Marco."
