Reviews
Mine: I never understood what all the fuss was about when this was first released. A sub-standard comedy. Likable enough at parts.
Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: A bubbleheaded Jewish American Princess enlists in the Army, and after a disastrous initiation finds direction and self-esteem for the first time in her life. Entertaining comedy with more substance than one might expect; Goldie is terrific in this tailor-made vehicle (which she produced). Later a TV series.
