Description:The plot, such as it is, involves a nightclub singer Hattie (Ann Sothern) who falls in love with a soldier from a wealthy family. She struggles to get along with his daughter and with feelings that she isn't adequate, but in the end they get married. Red Skelton, Rags Ragland, and Ben Blue are along as three sailors who provide laughter (?). Marsha Hunt is a society dame who tries to keep Hattie away from her man.

Review - Panama Hattie

No plot to speak of, but some decent songs. Best line, from Skelton to Hunt, something like "After the war I'll show you the world. I'll show you Australia, India. I'll even show you where Japan used to be."
