Which Way to the Front?
You vill see... and you vill laugh.
Directed by Jerry Lewis
Produced by Jerry Lewis Productions, Warner Bros. Pictures
A lighthearted WWII comedy about misfits and underdogs determined to contribute to the war effort, built on broad humor and patriotic earnestness rather than satire or darkness.
Brendan Byers III, one of the richest men in America, has been pronounced 4-F and can't serve his country in its war against Hitler. Byers does not take "No" for an answer and recruits other 4-F's to fight against Hitler.
