Product Description
A stirring British film based on the life of pioneering aviatrix Amy Johnson (Anna Neagle), who won the hearts of the British public in the 1930s with her record-breaking solo flights around the world.
Her fiercest rival is a fellow British pilot named Jim Mollison (Robert Newton), who after meeting Amy falls helplessly in love with her. They marry but Jim is hiding a serious drink problem and Amy's fame takes a toll on her marriage to fellow flyer who chafes at being overshadowed by his wife.
A classic example of the Herbet Wilcox and Anna Neagle silver screen partnership. They Flew Alone is powerful and apt celebration of the life of Amy Johnson.
