Watch Practically Yours (1944) Official Trailer
THE SCREEN'S Practically Perfect COMEDY!
7 / 10 IMDb December 20, 1944 1h 30m
In this screwball comedy a WW2 US pilot bombs a Japanese aircraft carrier, is assumed to be dead, and then is misquoted in the press as fondly remembering his days back home walking his dog Piggy. Instead of his dog Piggy he is thought to be in love with Peggy, a girl he worked with. The usual farce ensues after he returns home alive and tries to play along with the mistake to save embarrassment for all.
