     No Time for Sergeants
1958  NR  COMEDY  1h 59min
CAST— Andy Griffith, Myron McCormick, Nick Adams, Murray Hamilton, Don Knotts
MUSIC— Ray Heindorf  DIRECTOR— Mervyn LeRoy  BASED ON— No Time for Sergeants (novel), by Mac Hyman

     Hilarious military-themed comedy that showed the world just how funny Andy Griffith can be. He plays a backwoods bumpkin who’s been drafted into the service. There he meets a nervous little lad (played by Nick Adams) who dreams of being transferred from the Air Force into the Infantry. With a friend like Griffith he’s sure to get in. Together they take every test that’s thrown at them and bungle every task set before them. A laugh riot from beginning to end. Film debut for Don Knotts.
OUR RATING— ***
