Those War World War 11 Wives at the Homefront ***1/2
21 March 2012
Warning: Spoilers
While waiting for their GI husbands to be shipped overseas,they live in a temporary boarding house.

Coming from a wealthy family, Jeanne Crain has a difficult time adjusting to her life there until she finds out that the head of the house is a war-widow.

The film deals with their lives there. Despite trying to settle down, Crain is ready to buy a trailer home so that they can live better and have her father, a wealthy industrialist, pull strings so that her husband, Danny, Frank Latimore, remain at the home front.

When a book is found about child care, everyone erroneously thinks that Crain is pregnant.

The ending is typical Hollywood. With Danny shipping off, the two kiss and vow to have enough children to start a football team. We've heard this before, but the film is a good one as it reminds us of the sacrifices made by those gals during war-time.
