Looking for more movies like 'I was a Male War Bride'


I watched several other movies on the same topic like "A Foreign Affair", "The Search", "The Devil makes three", "The Prize of Gold", "Germania anno zero" and "Hallo Fraeulein" (with Peter Van Eyck).
Could somebody recommend more movies from the forties and fifties?

Also, I was wondering why "Male War Bride" received only 7 stars?
It's hilarious, has great actors/comedians, a nice plot, good soundtrack, great outdoor locations. Why not giving it 9 stars (o.k., I gave "A Foreign Affair" 10 stars, so maybe "War Bride" is not quite as great, but almost!).

You have to see "A Letter to Three Wives" (not the remake with Dyan Cannon, but the original with Kirk Douglas, Ann Southern, Linda Darnell) and "All About Eve." Both are absolute classics. Also, "Best Years of Our Lives." I love movies from this time, so I'm sure I'll come up with many more. I would have added Foreign Affairs, but you've already seen it.
