What seemed as a strong anti-establishment film 50+ years ago, seems like a gentle poke at working class values today, with the silly "true love will solve all problems" message at the end.. Interesting period piece.... the famous twp,shots of Dustin Hoffman going the wrong way on the Bay Bridge to Berkeley....(the upper deck goes west to San Francisco, the east lower deck is hidden visually)

Just saw this tonight on our ;local PBS station after many years, looked very good surprisingly. Despite the silly start with those sailors & marines singing (I was in the Navy once ) and those goofy colored filter effects, the score is outstanding and the cast and direction is perfect. Another nice tribute to our WWII veterans who are fading, fading away......
