Review of The Major and the Minor (1942) by Dan G — 07 Jun 2013
After a young woman is forced to disguise herself as a 12-year old girl to get her train ticket for half price, she meets a major who is she meets a major who is strangely attracted to her. Wilder is not afraid to go around the code restrictions by creating a comedic situation with intelligently placed sexual undertones.
It is his delicacy too, mixed with a well timed performance by Ginger Rogers who has arguably never been funnier, that makes the story believable and entertaining.
