Reagan and Sheridan were previously paired in the much-better "Kings Row" (1942) but this is a good, if melodramatic, social issues pic, although it certainly seems oddly titled since Sheridan's character isn't the focus.

Hokum melodrama with all concerned treading water.

I think I like Juke Girl (1942) better than most. Sure it's got it's issues. Ronald Reagan was probable not the best choice for the lead, but there weren't many proven leading men left in Hollywood at the time and I felt he stepped up to the challenge. Ann Sheridan keeps her cool the best, but I wasn't expecting a farm drama with that title and she's better off in the city. But of course a good lynching always livens up a movie!
