Movie Time

​An intriguing lineup, presumably used in the production of an aviation movie.

They appear to be, from the right, a DH-4 fuselage, the Pitcairn PA-7S C95W now displayed in the EAA Aviation Museum, a Stearman 4 (?), a Curtiss JN-4 or derivative, a Travel Air followed by a jumble of parts including perhaps a JN-4 fuselage pointing skyward and another JN-4 fuselage. Could that bare metal fin at far left be a Vultee V-1?
There is a Southern California feel to the scene which is reinforced by the C-54s behind the blast fence.

So which movie was it?
