PUNQ

Rated 15 Apr 2014

A cocky Cambridge brat becomes a American army recruit and learns the lesson that he really is greater then everybody even if the other army fellows won't admit it. Got all the clichés one expects from this kind of corny campus film. Louis Hayward is likable enough, but he's not exactly a superstar on screen. More likable was his over-eager friend Tom Brown in the sympathetic role. And even more likable then him was Joan Fontaine as the girl that pops in once in a while to give this some beauty.
