Devotion

The true story of Jesse Brown, the first Black aviator to complete the U.S. Navy's basic flight training, and his friendship with a white wingman during the Korean War. Jonathan Majors plays Brown and Glen Powell plays Tom Hudner.

J. D. Dillard films the flying with real scale, but the film is most interested in Brown's private life: the insults he rehearses in a mirror to harden himself, and the family he flies for. It's a war film about dignity under pressure.
