Now We're in the Air (1927) is a silent film starring the unofficial late-1920s comedy team of Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatton, and Louise Brooks. The movie was directed by Frank R. Strayer.
Wallace Beery and Louise Brooks worked together the following year in Beggars of Life, a well-received early sound film.
Now We're in the Air is believed to be a lost film.
Wally and Ray are cousins intent upon getting the fortune of their Scotch grandad, an aviation nut. They become mixed-up with the U. S. flying corps and are wafted over the enemy lines in a runaway balloon. Through misunderstanding they are honored as heroes of the enemy forces, and sent back to the U.S. lines to spy. Here they are captured and almost shot, but everything ends happily.[1]
