  1. What a fun, patriotic film that showed those Nazis a thing or two! Granted, they were portrayed as far too merciful and patient. Great role for Edward who did quite a lot for the war effort on the home front. It was truly terrible having to endure Donna Reed in such a nasty role when all I care to remember is her marvelous sugar and spice performance in "It's a Wonderful Life" five years later. Oh momma was I envious of Jimmy Stewart (my favorite actor of all time)! She was the prettiest thing on two legs in the 40's for my money. Many will disagree, cuz the competition was indeed stiff! Prettiest actress of all time for my money? Grace Kelly! Once again, that two-timing Jimmy Stewart stole my gal (in Rear Window this time!) — not to mention the King of Monaco! Jimmy is just lucky that I was only knee high to a grasshopper at the time or I might have written him a non-fan letter (after I learned how to write)!  🙂

    Dog "Friday" was a joy to watch!

  2. OK, kill me, I'm evil – – – but bitchy Donna Reed is kinda hot! I know, I know, as Hypsan rightly points out, goody-goody Donna Reed (from It's A Wonderful Life and her TV show) is the perfect girlfriend / wife we'd be so lucky to have enduringly, – – – but for one nasty, 'no one's looking' weekend . . .

    Or is it just me ?

  3. Future Oscar winners Donna Reed and director Fred Zinneman started out in delightfully awful B-movie fare where, for instance, a punch in the nose is guaranteed to render a person conveniently unconscious!
