Scrambling fact in a free-for-all of oldtime comedy styles, Magnificent Men invents a Great London-Paris Air Race in the year 1910. The competition, sponsored by British Publishing Tycoon Robert Morley, soon becomes a contest between a rugged U.S. barnstormer (Stuart Whitman) and an airborne English aristocrat (James Fox), each determined to win the day and the tycoon's daughter, Sarah Miles, precisely the sort of flibbertigibbet Josephine who might lose her heart-and through frequent entanglements, her hobble skirt-to a daring young man in a flying machine...

(If this is the case, an American policy of unilateral disarmament intiatives to dispell suspicion would evidently be sound). No, Aron attributes the cold war "permanent alert" to the frank realization on both sides that there will be no interval, such as Britain...
