It's 1941. Cary Grant is the captain of a damaged
submarine that is
trying to make it to a navy yard for repairs, Tony
Curtis is his
wheeler-dealer lieutenant...and then they take on a
load of stranded
nurses.
I expected this to be mildly amusing, but you know,
it was really funny!
many good lines/situations beyond the obvious;
Curtis and Grant were
good at playing off each other, and at least one of
the nurses was
allowed to have an actual personality, she turned
out to be a mechanic
and ended up in the engine room, fixing stuff. You
go, girl!
I'm still not sure if either Grant or the young
Tony Curtis was a honey;
they're both cute, but don't quite make it...I'll
have to watch more of
their movies, and let you know later.
Otter sez: This one is a whole lot of fun, worth
renting when you need
a laugh.
