If Nominated, He Will Not Run

Philllip Terry is home after spending the war in the Army -- stateside, as he willingly admits. As he heads downtown to get his old job at the hardware store back, he finds himself running for alderman against his will.

Ths amusing but conventional comedy about political machines (represented by Donald MacBride, Allen Jenkins and Ann Savage) is powered by Miss Savage's sardonic line readings, and Terry's principled-fish-out-of-water performance. He reminds me of Dennis O'Keefe who in the previous couple of years had starred in some terrific farces under the direction of Allan Dwan. It also made me think of HAIL THE CONQUERING HERO, but that was written and directed by Preston Sturges. This one is a pleasant programmer, with Jane Darwell and Edward Gargan to round out the cast.
