Based on a 1946 novel and its 1948 Broadway adaptation, which 1955 wartime comedy boasted an all-star cast including Henry Fonda, James Cagney, Jack Lemmon, and William Powell?
Answer Mister Roberts
Henry Fonda plays the title character, an officer stationed on a World War II cargo ship whose fervent desire to get into the action is repeatedly thwarted by his tyrannical captain (James Cagney). Jack Lemmon provides much comic relief as slacker shipmate Ensign Pulver. William Powell, in his final film appearance, plays Doc, the ship's doctor and friend of Mister Roberts.
