Oh, dear? Is Eileen Mott the only other Frank Lovejoy fan out there?
The quotation is from the movie "Strategic Air Command" in which he

with June Allison playing June Allison, James Stewart playing a log,
lots of cameo bit roles, BUT ! some of the most beautiful sequences in
aerial cinematography ever produced.
