Billy Wilder shows great skill in sustaining audience interest throughout what is essentially a one-character, one-scene film, which he achieves through interspersing the present from the night before the takeoff, with flashbacks that retell the background to the mission, each a little story in itself, some quite tense.
Far more dramatic is the takeoff during foul weather from a rain drenched runway in which Stewart grapples with his tiny aircraft narrowly clearing pylons and a clump of trees.

Whereas past indiscretions such as JFK's alleged affairs with various women were always rumored but rarely explored, today's candidates had better have a squeaky clean past and a skeleton free closet lest their political career face the prospects of suddenly coming to a crashing halt.
That's because many of today's voters often seem more interested in a politician's personal life rather than their career record or capabilities, and the whole Clinton scandal certainly brought that to the forefront.
Although the film is rather clear-cut in who it wants us to root for as its hero and hate as the villain, neither they nor many of the other characters are pure fl and white, or right or wrong.

 National Review: F. Clifton White, R I P - tribute to the late Republican Party leader - Editorial
Others, equally devoted to the "great game," may never run for office at all, preferring to work in the campaigns of others, or to serve their party and their country in ways less visible still.
Clifton White was one of the latter, and his career puts to rest forever the notion that a politician of this type cannot hope to have as much influence on events as a successful candidate.
Born in upstate New York in 1918 and educated at Colgate and Cornell, the tall, gangly youth (he reminded some people of Jimmy Stewart) served as navigator of a B-17 in 25 combat missions over Germany in World War II, and came home already planning a political career.

When countries are not free, as during World War II or the Soviet era, the notion of government leaders, intellectuals and other influentials choosing to deal with opposition figures and their proposals makes sense and is constructive.
There may be politicians so pure of heart that such cynical thoughts never cross their minds.
The other effect of this, of course, is to make it easier for incumbents (who already win 90+ percent of elections) to gain re-election, because it limits the money and tactics that challengers and those who support challengers can use.
