Kiss Them for Me
They tried so hard ... so very hard ... not to fall in love !
A lighthearted 1950s romantic comedy about three war heroes on shore leave in San Francisco, built on charm, flirtation, and the playful chaos of young men and women falling in love.
Three navy war heroes are booked on a morale-building "vacation" in San Francisco. Once they manage to elude their ulcerated public relations officer, the trio throw a wild party with plenty of pretty girls.
