I am 56 years old and certainly wasn't around for WWII but I would wager that the negative reviews for this film are all from young people who are simply ignorant about the time period that this film was made. It is sad that people must denigrate a sentimental evocation of a time and place that may never have existed in the real world. Accept the fact that some films are meant to tug at the heartstrings especially at a time when the American spirit needed uplifting. Reality is not always entertainment and films are often meant to be an escape from the harshness of "real life". So those of you who can find nothing good in a "sweet" and yes, corny film cannot appreciate those of us who do.
