The Girl He Left Behind

After his college has had its fill of his loafing, spoiled, indolent jock Andy Schaeffer (Tab Hunter) finds himself with a new opportunity...basic training, courtesy of his Uncle Sam. Try as he might to wash out so he can get back to girlfriend Susan (Natalie Wood), the disrespectful draftee finds himself getting lessons in manhood instead. Clever military comedy co-stars Jessie Royce Landis, Jim Backus, Murray Hamilton, and James Garner. 103 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
