| pretty good ww II film
William Lundigan and Dan Dailey are boxers who fall for "Judy", (Jean Rogers), the landlord's neice. This has some comedy regulars, Rags Ragland and Leo Gorcey (dead end kids and the bowery boys films. died real young!). and TONS of extras and uncredited roles... including a twenty year old Ava Gardner, Charles Lane, Bert Moorhouse. The landlord's accent keeps changing, but she wants to look out for her neice; she tells the boxers to lay off, but we'll see if that works. Judy cares about the boxers, but isn't sure where she fits in. she is strong willed, and wants her own career. that may or may not be want the boxers are looking for. apparently, sunday punch actually is a boxing term that i hadn't heard before. Directed by David Miller. Didn't win any oscars, but had a successful career in hollywood. worked with Joan Crawford a couple times (Sudden Fear and Esther Costello). This one is pretty good. The U.S. had just entered WW II, so it was entertaining during a tough time.
