Information and Film Reviews for Private Benjamin the Movie

Staff rating


Visitor rating
4.0 from 0 reviews

Lighthearted fare about a pampered New York Jewish princess who impulsively enlists in the U.S. Army after her husband dies on their wedding night. Hawn, who also produced, creates a character loveable even at her worst moments and brings a surprising amount of depth to this otherwise frivolous look at high society attitudes. Basis for a TV series.
