Hay Foot

1942 · 48 min

A breezy, silly army comedy full of mistaken identity and slapstick, easy to watch and forget.

Tagline: All the same stars of that other convulsive army comedy that was the most hilarious thing in khaki 'til this one came along!
Overview: Colonel Barkley is very proud of his assistant, Sergeant Doubleday, who has a photographic memory. Doubleday shows off his book knowledge on firearms during a class given by Sergeant Ames, embarrassing him. Through a series of misunderstandings, Colonel Barkley thinks the gun shy Doubleday is an expert marksman, and he sets him up in a shooting match against Ames and Sergeant Cobb.
How it feels: Light, absurd, whimsical and campy. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Identity, friendship, rebellion, love
Content: Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
