I have heard about this film from my husband. He said this was a wonderful film that he watched a lot on TV when he was a boy. We just noticed that it is now available on DVD so we ordered it.
From the beginning of this film I was not impressed. I just found it boring and a waste of Mr Grant's talent. I didn't find the "dancing" worm interesting. So what? It doesn't have a hat and cane and do the old soft shoe routine so what is the big deal? It just wiggles. Don't get me wrong, I love movies and am push over for any cute story with good acting. This movie does not offer any of that. Most of the acting is bad and the story is way too silly. I don't think something like this during World War II, or anytime, would have grabbed the headlines and the hearts of millions. I know this is only a movie, but what a fantasy to swallow!! A dancing worm,... someone get me some Raid!
