Four Jills In A Jeep: Review

starstarstarstar
Francis, Landis, Raye, and Mayfair went on a USO tour in 1943 and had such an interesting time that the studio decided to make a movie about it. The tour had to have been more interesting than this picture, which is the story of Kay Francis wanting to bring some light into the lives of the boys overseas. She constructs a USO unit consisting of herself and the aforementioned trio. The tour takes them into a posh London townhouse, a wet Quonset hut, and into the desiccated North African desert. In real life, Landis married an airman she met overseas, and that romance is chronicled in the film. It's loaded with guest stars and songs from other Fox movies, some of which include Grable singing "Cuddle up a Little Closer" (Karl Hoschna and Otto Harbach), Faye with "You'll Never Know" (Mack Gordon and Harry Warren), Miranda with "I'Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi (I Like You Very Much)" (Gordon and Warren), and Raye with "Mr. Paganini" (Sam Coslow). Other songs: "Crazy Me," "You Send Me," "How Blue the Night," "How Many Times Do I Have to Tell You?" (Harold Adamson and Jimmy McHugh), the last three sung by Haymes, making his first screen appearance, "No Love, No Nothing" (Leo Robin and Harry Warren), George M. Cohan's "Over There," and Brig. Gen. Edmund L. Gruber's "When the Caissons Go Rolling Along." Critics didn't like the film very much, but it has some merit today as a look at the USO tour groups. One song called "Snafu," was cut because it was too explicit for the Hays Office. leave a comment
