Strategic Air Command ★★½ 1955
A classic post-WWII chunk of Air Force patriotism. Veteran third baseman Stewart is recalled to flight duty at the hint of a nuclear war. He's already put in his time in the Big One and thinks he's being singled out now, but he answers his Uncle Sam's call. Allyson plays Stewart's wife for the third time. 114m/C VHS . James Stewart, June Allyson, Frank Lovejoy, Barry Sullivan; D: Anthony Mann; C: William H. Daniels.
