With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for history and war-film fans and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost. Liked Operation Petticoat or To Be or Not to Be? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Light and funny, intense.
- The pace
- Light on its feet, at 1 hr 18 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1943: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Beverly Ross, the switchboard operator at a local radio station, jumps at the chance to be the DJ for an early morning show before the soldiers at a nearby army camp assemble for reveille. Beverly, with her modern music, camp bulletins and chatter, is a hit with the soldiers. Beverly's younger brother and his two buddies are soldiers at the camp. The buddies vie for Beverly's attentions.
