Featured review
This is a show about a USO tour during WW11. It has a little more than sentimental value as I saw Martha Raye during my tour of Vietnam in the late 60's Camp Enari. Where many famous people just went to say that they did, Martha Rey really meant it and you could tell.
You can tell it is one of those made-up films that has stilted and hokey dialog to try and entertain the viewer. Somehow it works. The movie is based on the actual experience of Kay Francis, Carole Landis, and Mitzi Mayfair. And being produced in 1944 we do not get it through a hindsight filter of half a century.
The DVD I watched has: Isolated score track Deleted scenes The real four Jill's Restoration Comparison Still Gallery And more
Filmed at 20th Century Fox Studios - 10201 Pico Blvd., Century City, Los Angeles, California, USA.
