Showbiz Goes to War 1982

While a few stars such as James Stewart and Clark Gable saw combat, most Hollywood talent helped by selling bonds, touring with USO shows, starring in patriotic dramas and escapist movies. Comedian David Steinberg hosts this 90‑minute documentary, showing how Tinseltown rallied American morale and aided the United States’ war effort.
