Busses Roar

Not hard to see what Warner studio bosses saw in young Eleanor Parker, here as counter-girl Norma, in her first movie appearance, followed by Willie Best, Rex Williams whom we know to be a baddie, Creighton Hale selling tickets and Julie Bishop short of cash, early in the 1942 war-time programmer Busses Roar.

Reba (Julie Bishop) by now is pretty-much openly hustling for a bus ticket home, failing with just-arrived Sgt. Ryan (Richard Travis) and commiserating with Norma (Eleanor Parker, in her first movie), Vera Lewis and Harry Bradley the senior couple, in the Warner Bros. B-feature Busses Roar,1942.
