You're in the Army Now is a special piece of nostalgia and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch two comedies together.

Besides Edgar Kennedy, no one was more passionate about movies than Donald MacBride. His face is beautiful, and his reactions to Durante and Silvers are sometimes funnier than the two actors.

Durante's and Silvers' styles clash and for good reason Abbott&Costello try to work on two comedies. Second, Silvers was a different defeat for him. However, they do have some fun stuff and the climax involving MacBride's house is really scary.

The plot of the film involves an old cavalry colonel, Donald MacBride, who refuses to convert to a mechanized army at the distress of Jane Wyman's daughter and her lover, Regis Toomey. . Similarly, some soldiers are slow to adapt to changes.

Released on Christmas Day 1941, You're in the Army Now is a great opportunity to see comedy giants Jimmy Durante and Phil Silvers working together in a four-part Warner Brothers effort. Valued the success of Universal and Abbott&Costello. In Buck Privates. Even some of Durante and Silvers' routines are straight out of the A&C playbook.

Anecdotes
Listed in the Guinness Book of Records for many years for containing the single longest on-screen kiss, between Jane Wyman and Regis Toomey clocking in at 3 minutes and 5 seconds. This record was not broken until Big Top Pee-wee (1988) and then by the six minute kiss at the end of Kids in America (2005).
