Review of Hollywood Canteen (1944) by Mathieu C — 28 Aug 2007
A scripted film trying to show what the actual hollywood canteen was like. This film should not stand as a historical document, which I doubt it actually does anyway, but as a testament to how Hollywood wants the see itself.
The movie itself however is loads of fun, it is basicly a musical with a slew of guest stars. The film also features a romance between a soldier and Joan Leslie, the soldier dreams of her in combat and finds out she is a real grounded person.
It is a little corny, and obviously fabricated outside of reality but sweet none the less.
