Thursday, November 12 - Somewhere I'll Find You

Somewhere I'll Find You (1942)

Gable is Jonny Walker and Sterling is Kirk Walker, brothers who work together as war correspondents for a New York newspaper, just returning from overseas. They aren't home for long before they are competing for the affection of Paula Lane (Turner),  a reporter who flip-flops between the two.  When Paula is sent on assignment to Indochina and disappears, the brothers are commissioned to find her. Once they do find her, Pearl Harbor happens and the three of them end up in Bataan: Jonny reporting for the paper, Kirk as a solider and Paula as a Red Cross nurse. The film was a "flag waver" meant to inspire war bond sales.
