Movie Info

Self-centered Washington socialite Rosalind Russell joins the WACS in order to be near her boyfriend William Ching, a GI stationed in Paris. Russell is certain that her DC connections will enable her to get out of the service as easily as she got in. Unfortunately for her, Russell's ex-husband Paul Douglas decides to teach her a lesson by pulling a few strings himself. Several of the army-camp scenes are stolen by Marie Wilson as an amply proportioned chorus girl, who's joined the WACS to escape

Unrated, 1 hr. 27 min.

If you've ever seen Private Benjamin you will notice that this movie was the inspiration for that one. Which is better? I'd say they're about the same in terms of comedy and acting and story. A pretty good movie.
