Netflix has Corregidor and Cabin in the Sky on DVD.
Corregidor is strictly a low-budget propaganda film. L.B.F. has it right.
Our main takeaway from Cabin in the Sky is that there should have been more Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington. A nice movie just the same. It transmits the important wisdom that if you shoot dice and chase scarlet women you will have a hard time getting into heaven.

Queens Die Proudly? Scary title. Book is apparently about a B-17 in the Pacific.
