"Rally 'Round the Flag, Boys!" is a 1958 film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Max Shulman starring Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. The title comes from a line in the song "Battle Cry of Freedom".
Plot
Commuter Harry Bannerman (Paul Newman) is slowly going insane because of his wife Grace (Joanne Woodward), who insists on attending every civic committee meeting. When the government selects their town for their new missile base, Grace joins a committee to stop it.
Harry is made the liaison for the military, and Grace's activities cause him no end of trouble. Added to the dilemma is Angela Hoffa (Joan Collins) whose efforts to get Harry for herself lead to dizzying recriminations and misunderstandings.
