This is a propaganda movie, pure and simple, intended to address the resistance of the British populace to the presence of over a million American soldiers on British soil in preparation for Operation Overlord, the long-awaited allied invasion of Nazi-dominated Europe. Every single scene and shot in this movie and every line of dialog is tailored to the purpose of persuading the target audience, the ruffled British citizenry, to go happily to war in defense of glorious British traditions and to accept the dirty and uncultured American soldiers (from places like Brooklyn and Oregon) as jolly-good comrades in arms. It couldn't be more blatant or obvious, and the movie is of interest only as a textbook example of British propaganda. Otherwise, it's complete drivel.
I enjoyed it enormously.
