ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 08/14/2018 Hollywood Canteen is an okay film. It is about two soldiers on sick leave spend three nights at the Hollywood Canteen. Bette Davis and John Garfield give decent films. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Delmer Dawes did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor and romance.

See more 06/04/2013 The countless musical performances and celebrity cameos keep everything moving wonderfully, but it's the underlying tale that leaves us smiling wide. See more 06/27/2012 Wartime song-and-dance number with ALL of the big Warner Bros. stars of the day (Notably absent but mentioned several times was Humphrey Bogart). Cute at times but otherwise trite even taking into account the time it was made See more 06/24/2012 Howwwwww have I never seen this before? Pure WWII propaganda with zero plot, but the 40s diva factor (Davis, Crawford, Stanwyck to name but a few) alone warrants this a recommendation. See more 06/03/2010 76/100. This has truly a once in a lifetime cast, and it is well worth seeing just for the absolutely incredible star appearances. It is very entertaining, light and breezy with countless memorable scenes. Great musical numbers, fun skits and amusing scenes throughout. Among the stars appearing: Bette Davis, John Garfield, Barbara Stanwyck, Jack Benny, Joan Crawford, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, Ida Lupino, Paul Henreid, Dennis Morgan, Eleanor Parker, Roy Rogers and Jane Wyman.
