Sunday Matinee: The Millionaires’ Unit [Film]

The Millionaires’ Unit tells the unsung story of a group of Yale college students who became the founding squadron of the U.S. Naval Air Reserve in World War I by taking the initiative to learn to fly in preparation for America’s entry into the Great War.” – Big Time PR

For the life of me, I can not remember diving into a film on a subject that I truly knew so little about, and wasn’t entirely sure I was going to be interested in….and then fall in love with the story! I usually lack any sort of affinity for rich people doing, well, anything at all. But there is definitely something very fascinating about a group of people who have the means to do good, and actually do it!

And that is exactly what the subjects of The Millionaires’ Unit went out and did. Whether you are a person who is genuinely amazed by the history of aviation, or just want to hear a tale of triumph from a group of people who really didn’t HAVE to do good, The Millionaires Unit is an absolutely perfect film that you are going to certainly enjoy!

The Millionaires’ Unit hits VOD on February 15th, and is available now on DVD and Blu Ray. Check out the trailer here:
