Now, if I do say so myself, here is a truly GREAT one! Maybe the All Time Best Ever! A slightly higher resolution version.

It would be a good movie. Even a twist at the end, as she was shot down but her body was never found. Due to Stalin's policy of executing any pilots who were shot down behind enemy lines, and managed to make it back, if she survived being shot down, she wouldn't have returned. There was some speculation that she lived out her days in Scandinavia (I can't remember exactly where).
There is a book of her life called "White Rose of Stalingrad" which is pretty good. She certainly lived an interesting life: The Short, Daring Life of Lilya Litvyak

The Soviets had great concerns about their people being "poisoned" by contact with other cultures. Shortly after WWII they even recalled all their spies in the West and executed them.
