Here is a film about such a one, with a passion for wings and the freedom of the skies. Filmed by Bill Mason whose own devotion is to the canoe PADDLE TO THE SEA, and PATH OF THE PADDLE, the subject here is his friend Blake James, another filmmaker, who pilots his own one-man plane. The film is Masons's view of this "hobo of the skies," but it is also an adventure. <19mn 17s>Language:EnglishOriginal number:106C 0169 076Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
