Wartime melodrama stew served up by the fantastic director Minnelli with his usual style. Lovers brought together by chance marry before he's sent off to war in Europe. "Big Parade" wannabe even has a scene which reverses that classic's parade sequence, only in this case in a subway and the persons are reversed because it's Garland who's swept away. Garland has some wonderful scenes, but is occasionally overstated -- it's Walker who really drags the film down a notch with his phony "cute" mannerisms. Still, a nice, well photographed and produced, flick.
