For the Boys
Bette Midler gives the brassiest, sassiest performance of her career as Dixie Leonard, a USO singer whose electrifying stage presence, and flair for outrageous comedy, captivates troops and civilians alike. Teamed up with America’s beloved song and dance man, Eddie Sparks (James Caan), the whole world becomes Dixie’s stage through three very different wars, and 50 years of music and memories, laughter and tears. All of it… FOR THE BOYS.

5 Stars For The Boys
Great value for the money. I love this movie–although there is quite a bit of bad language in it–and the soundtrack is great! I had the soundtrack when it first came out, but had lost it over the years. I was really happy to find it and for a great price!
5 Stars Great Movie
This has got to be one of my all time favorites. It is definately a “chick flick”. But I loved it. It was both, funny and sad. I highly recommend this movie.
3 Stars A must have Bette Midler movie!
The best of Bette in this movie. You’ve got her wonderful singing voice, her comedic acting, her serious dramatic acting….everything. This movie has all of what you expect from Bette Midler. James Caan adds just the right amount of talent but pales in comparison to Bette Midler. You’ve got to get this movie to add to your library.
