A silent movie about World War I fighter pilots, WINGS was directed by William A. Wellman. The film starred Clara Bow, Charles 'Buddy' Rogers and Richard Arlen, with Gary Cooper in a scene which helped launch his star in Hollywood, and also marked the beginning of his affair with Clara Bow. WINGS was an immediate success, premiering on August 12, 1927 at the Critereo Theatre in New York and playing 63 weeks before being moved to second-run theaters. In addition to it receiving the first Best Picture Oscar, Wings has the distinction of being the only silent film in movie history to win in the Best Picture category.
