The Major and the Minor

1942, Movie, 1h 40min

The great Billy Wilder made the leap from hitmaking Hollywood screenwriter to acclaimed writer-director with this fizzy, innuendo-laden (“Why don’t you get out of that wet coat and into a dry martini?”) screwball confection, starring a delightful Ginger Rogers as Susan Applegate, a New York City career girl who, tired of the lecherous men she must deal with in the workplace, decides to head back home to Iowa. With only enough money to afford a child’s fare, Susan disguises herself as a twelve-year-old girl—a situation that grows complicated when she begins developing feelings for the kindly Army major (Ray Milland) who takes her under his wing.

Tekniskt och skådespelarmässigt sett väl utfört men en film som lämnar riktigt dålig eftersmak! Ginger Rogers klär ut sig till tolvåring och trots att alla går på det hindrar det inte en enda av männen i filmen att försöka få henne i säng.
