Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Joan's first movie for Warners
Remember when Hollywood used to care about our boys fighting overseas?

Remember when a Star would gladly pose for a picture with a fan?

Remember when a Star would sign as many autographs as possible?

Remember the good' ole days. That's what "Hollywood Canteen" is about.

"Hollywood Canteen" is a star-studded blockbuster from the 1940's. It revolves around two fictional characters that are on leave in Hollywood. What's there to do in the meantime? Well, go to the "Hollywood Canteen," of course!

Many of Hollywood's biggest starts of the 40's work at the "Hollywood Canteen." They entertain and serve the service boys.

This was Joan Crawford's first picture with Warners after her 18 year tenure with MGM abruptly ended. But, Joanie doesn't have a big part in this picture. In fact, none of the other big names have a huge part. The biggest ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A PIECE OF AMERICANA
SOME HERE MISS THE POINT OF THIS FILM. THIS WAS GREAT IN THAT THIS MOVIE PROJECTED THE AMERICA MOST WANTED TO BELIEVE THEY WERE FIGHTING FOR AT THE TIME. AN AMERICA OF EQUALS WHERE THE STARS WERE ALL REALLY JUST TRUE BLUE AMERICANS JUST LIKE US, AND IN THIS NATION THE PRETTY MOVIE STAR WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH THE MODEST G.I.! I HOPE THIS FILM WILL COME OUT IN DVD!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN
Having been fortunate to have been SERVED at "THE" canteen I have found this to be a true story of the canteen. True Robert Hutton's romance with Joan Leslie was not a fact, however, it gave us guys a sense of enjoying our many fantasies. This film was very entertaining, in my eyes, and I'm certain many of us who were fortunate the have visited the Hollywood canteen feel much the same. I was in Hollywood recently and went to the site. It doesn't look the same but I imagined I was standing in line to enter.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN
Not the greatest film ever made by far BUT it does have an all star(mostly cameos)cast headed by BETTE DAVIS which makes it more than worth seeing.
