Curiosidades

Sky Bride is a 78-minute 1932 drama film, produced by Paramount Pictures and directed by Stephen Roberts. The film stars Richard Arlen, Jack Oakie and Virginia Bruce. Sky Bride depicts the life of barnstorming pilots flying in the years following World War I. All over North America, skilled pilots, many of them veterans of the aerial combat of World War I, plied their trade on the barnstorming circuit of the 1920s in small towns where impromptu air shows were staged.

Production

Principal photography for Sky Bride began February 1932 at the Metropolitan Airport and Chatsworth, Los Angeles studios in the San Fernando Valley of California.

Essential to filming the story was a seven-pilot team of Associated Motion Picture Pilots led by Leo Nomis, and later Frank Clarke. On February 5, 1932, the production was halted when lead pilot Nomis was killed while performing a stunt. He had been seriously injured weeks earlier in a race track accident while driving as a stunt double in The Crowd Roars (1932).
