Cette volonté de pouvoir ne fait pas de Richard l'incarnation du Diable que l'on a souvent décrite : elle naît plutôt d'un désir de revanche sur la Nature qui l'a fait difforme et sur la société entière, sur ceux qu'il a aidés à prendre le pouvoir et qui le rejettent une fois que ses mains sont salies (c'est lui qui a tué Henry VI et ainsi permis à Edouard de monter sur le trône).

The film begins in 1947 at Muroc Army Air Field, an arid California military base where test pilots often die flying high-speed aircraft such as the rocket-powered Bell X-1. After another pilot, Slick Goodlin, demands $150,000 to attempt to break the sound barrier, war hero Captain Chuck Yeager receives the chance to fly the X-1. While on a horseback ride with his wife Glennis, Yeager collides with a tree branch and breaks his ribs, which inhibits him from leaning over and locking the door to the X-1. Worried that his injury might become known, Yeager confides in friend and fellow pilot Jack Ridley. Ridley cuts off part of a broomstick and tells Yeager to use it as a lever to help seal the hatch to the X-1, and Yeager becomes the first man to fly at supersonic speed, defeating the "demon in the sky".
