You will have to go all the way back to the summer of 1944 when the American popular comedy/action film was released for movie goers. Stone Harbor’s only movie theatre at that time featured ABROAD WITH TWO YANKS starring well known actors William Bendix and Dennis O’Keefe as well as actress Helen Walker. The plot of this particular film, in case you are interested, went like this: “Arriving in Australia after the Battle of Guadalcanal, two American Marines compete with each other by stealing the other’s Australian girl friend. Their intense rivalry leads to their arrest and escape from confinement dressed as women”.
Do you remember a special movie that you might have seen at the Park Theatre?
