Trivia
As the marines are leaving the Oakridge station, a billboard behind them is advertising El asombro del siglo (1943), another film by Preston Sturges.

Errores
Early in the movie, in the nightclub, there's a shot of a man sitting at a table eating a sandwich. After a quick cutaway the man is smoking and the sandwich is on his plate...untouched.

Citas
Libby: [mad at Mayor Noble for criticizing Woodrow] That ass of a father of yours! Going around talking about people he doesn't know anything about.
Forrest Noble: You're still talking about your children's grandfather.
Libby: What are you trying to do? Depress me? If I thought they'd look anything like him...
Forrest Noble: Well, I don't look anything like him.
Libby: I've noticed that. I've pinned my hopes on it.

Delightful, piquant war effort

This film was delightful and fun! It will lift your spirits - as I imagine it was meant to do in 1944. I enjoy watching films made during WWII - it helps me understand the attitudes and thoughts of the people living and fighting then. The sentiment is occasionally rather precious (for a Sturges film), but that is my quibble. I have always enjoyed watching Sturges' Sullivan's Travels. Watching "Hail the Conquering Hero" has convinced me to find and view more of Sturges' films. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
