    Where to Watch

Bud Abbott and Lou Costello try an encore of their success, as two GIs attempting to smuggle in a French orphan (Beverly Simmons). Bill: Tom Brown. Collins: Nat Pendleton. Sylvia: Joan Fulton. Roberts: Don Beddoe. Doesn't hit the high laugh scale. Directed by Charles Barton.

Six years and 18 films later, Abbott and Costello return to their BUCK PRIVATES roles and help a little French girl sneak into America on their return trip home. Avoiding the cops and immigration officials, Bud and Lou find themselves in the middle of some wildly crazy situations, including a classic sequence that has Lou dangling on a clothesline between two high-rises. Nothing spectacular, but a fine effort from the dim-witted clowns.
