La escuadrilla Lafayette (1958)
La producción e idea del film es del propio director, quien encargó el guión a Albert Sidney Fleischman. Es una especie de autobiografía que relata cómo cambió la vida de un joven rebelde norteamericano al alistarse en la Fuerzas Aéreas Francesas durante la Primera Guerra Mundial (1914-1918). Luchando contra los alemanes, descubrió el auténtico sentido del amor y la amistad. Tras esta película, Wellman se retiró del mundo del cine y falleció en 1975.
