Hollywood Canteen (15-Dec-1944)
Director: Delmer Daves Writer: Delmer Daves Music Adapted by: Ray Heindorf Producer: Alex Gottlieb Keywords: Musical At the Hollywood Canteen, a USO-type organization, soldiers could stop by and get free food and drinks, maybe meet a movie star. G.I. Robert Hutton ("Slim"), on one-week leave, is the 1 millionth to enter the Canteen, winning an expense-paid weekend with Joan Leslie, coincidentally the actress he's been dreaming about. They meet and fall in love. It could happen. Nearly all stars from Warner (and some from Republic) appear in this musical showcase.
