I watched it n years ago, and it is almost my favorite of the comedy movies. It's a pity that the disc that I finally bought was borrowed and never returned. The male pig is the cutie husband of jessica parker of sex and city. I didn't expect such a cutie's acting skills to be so superb. The dialogue inside is very smart ass, for example: A: what do you recommend me to read if I want to become a writer. B: the entire third floor of new york public library. ------ (talking to himself ) 'this...

Two Jewish boys at the center of the camera, one who will become a Brooklyn prosecutor, and one who realizes his dream of becoming a playwright, the importance of this military life growing up is...

[Eugene is trying to make "small talk" with Rowena]
Eugene Morris Jerome: Are you from Biloxi?
Rowena: No, Gulfport. My husband, too.
Eugene Morris Jerome: Your husband? You're married? My God, he'll KILL me if he finds me here!
Rowena: No he won't.
Eugene Morris Jerome: Yes he will!
Rowena: He won't. He's in the service. He knew about me before we were married. He's my best customer...
Eugene Morris Jerome: Customer? You charge your own husband?
Rowena: I mean he's my best lover.

Eugene Morris Jerome: [narrating] We were headed for The Battle of the Pacific, and there wasn't one of us who wasn't really scared. But a week later they dropped The Bomb on Japan, and we never did see any action, outside of Rowena's place. We were glad our lives were spared, but the thought of those who went before us, especially those who didn't come back, haunts me to this day.

Sergeant Toomey: In the past twenty-one days, you boys have made some fine progress. You're not fighting soldiers yet, but I'd match you up against some Nazi cocktail waitress anytime.
