The only thing remarkable about this film is the fact it was lost and this, on TPTV, was put together by some film editors from two tatty copies of it. One on 35mm highly flammable nitrate film, which was transferred to a more stable film stock by specialists and one a 16mm copy found in, I think, Australia. Both were incomplete and they had to watch the two together over and over again, until they could see which bits were worth saving.
And I have to say, they did a brilliant job.
However, as far as the film is concerned, I am AGAIN (I reviewed their film "It's In The Bag" 1944 in 2020) , at a complete loss as to why this is funny. OK, the humour was different then, but surely there was no one in the war who laughed at this childish humour and pranks. I'll take others of the period with a pinch of salt, but this is just dire!
Absolutely no one of note in the film about them exposing black-marketeers in the war, who on this occasion were peddling tins of pineapple chunks (a luxury then) stolen from a cargo ship. Throw in a mix of some patriotic songs and propaganda about saving salvage (newspapers etc.) and there you have it.
