Bud Flangan and Chesney Allen, members in good standing of Britain's Crazy Gang comedy troupe, carry the story in Dreaming. The story involves a cheeky British soldier who is knocked unconscious and begins...yes, dreaming. Our hero imagines himself at New York's Stage Door Canteen, at the Ascot races, in Northern Africa and in the middle of Nazi Germany. There's not much in the way of plot, but Flanagan & Allen seldom needed plots, merely premises. Hazel Court shows up in several different characterizations as the hero's dream girl. It might prove interesting to compare Dreaming to the similar 1945 Fred MacMurray vehicle Where Do We Go From Here? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
