About
The Hollywood Canteen was a club for GI's where Joan Crawford might over-easy you some eggs and John Garfield might scrub out the frying pan. The movie Hollywood Canteen is a snappy, starry salute to that World War II landmark, built around a storyline involving a corporal who wins a date with winsome Joan Leslie. At ease, soldier, as real life Canteen co-founders Bette Davis and Garfield plus dozens more luminaries - from Jack Benny to Barbara Stanwyck to Roy Rogers and Trigger - dazzle the troops and modern fans in a "great big scrambled vaudeville show with enough talent to have made a dozen fine movies."
