Product Information
A musical set in the USO nightclub where the biggest names in show business entertained the troops during World War II, HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN boasts an all-star cast of dozens. Corporal Ed Slim (Robert Hutton) develops a crush on one of the show's stars, Joan Leslie (as herself). Knowing he is merely an enlistee, he thinks it is unlikely he could ever successfully woo her. However, he is lucky enough to win a night out on the town with her when he's named the canteen's millionth visitor.HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN features songs by Joan Crawford, Ida Lupino, Barbara Stanwyck, Peter Lorre, Sydney Greenstreet, Jack Benny, and Roy Rogers. Most of the actors worked for free and director Delmer Daves did a wonderful job of telling them to "just act more like themselves." Ray Heindorf conjures up a slew of catchy tunes. HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN showcases a time in the U.S. when show business was thriving and so was American generosity.Product Identifiers

FUN FOR ALL ... I LOVE IT
THE Hollywood Canteen was / is real and existed long beyond the war. This production was planned to have stars from other studios, but that didn't work out. What was made is still divine. Stars playing themselves working pretty darn well I think. Bette is Wonderful. Jack Benny is sublime. Joan Crawford is in this very long, but she does a nice bit. I am so happy to finally own this film. Did I pay a little more for this than most DVDs? Yes? Do i feel it is worth it? It's a fine disc with many nice extras. Your mileage may vary.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Memories from older times
I purchased this item as a Christmas gift for my mother and she told me she had watched it probably 6 times and really likes it as it brings back old memories for her. She was wondering if there were any other movies out from this era of the same quality as she would like to watch them as well. Let me know. ThanksBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
