Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Miracle of Morgan's Creek (1944)

Another one of those war-time movies that operated on the premise "manic = HI-larious."

Girl (Betty Hutton) marries a soldier she can't remember the night before he leaves for war, but he's left her a nine-month problem. Wackiness -- or lots of stuttering, borderline domestic abuse, mugging, and pratfalls anyway -- ensues.

I think people must have been just desperate for entertainment if this is what did the trick in '44.
