Landfall

More than a war movie, this is a class-cross romance with barmaid Mona falling for dashing flight lieutenant Rick. Like most run-of-the-mill romances, this one has obstacles to overcome and they happen to be wartime obstacles.

The Rick character is a bit too breeze and flippant at first, except when he gets into serious trouble for sinking a submarine that could have been British. After a short separation, Rick goes back to his base, where Mona didn't stop "investigating" what really happened.

The most dated part of the story is how meekly Mona behaves with the "men" (the officers in charge of Rick's case) and how she did not ever reveal anything to him about the part she had in the story.

It seemed a lot longer than it actually was, maybe because of a sticked-on side plot with Rick's friendly songwriting pilot who composes a song about Mona.
