The Major and the Minor, the 1942 Billy Wilder (directing his first American movie) romantic military comedy ("Is she a kid...or is she kidding?"; "Under 12?"; "As a kid of twelve... She's Terrific! As a gal of twenty-four... She's Gl-amorous!"; "Written by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder"; an odd movie where 24 year-old Ginger Rogers poses as a 12 year-old in order to get a child ticket on a train, and she is romanced by adult Ray Milland, who can't understand why this 12 year-old is SO mature!; certainly, this movie could not be made today!) starring Ginger Rogers, Ray Milland (in the title role as Major Philip Kirby), Rita Johnson, Robert Benchley, and Diana Lynn
