Made nearer the start WWII, this is a gently predictable comedy vehicle for Morland Graham, Here, he is "Old Bill" a Great War veteran who tries to enlist alongside his son (John Mills), but is told that he is now too old. The story depicts his efforts get himself to France, and once there of his antics to thrive and survive. Mills, meantime, is using all his charm on the gals in the local population - particularly poor "Françoise" (Janine Darcey). It's a wartime morale booster of a film, and ought not to be underestimated for that - Mary Clare, Roland Culver, and a fun comedy turn from Renee Houston all help it make us smile (yes, ok, and cringe a bit sometimes, too). It was based on a cartoon, and the story unfolds for us in a similarly created, episodic style that does it's job.
