The Major and the Minor

	Universal; $14.98
	Feature; NR
Director:	Billy Wilder
Cast:	Ginger Rogers and Ray Milland

Billy Wilder's delightful American debut (1942) stars the always crackerjack Ginger Rogers as a struggling career gal who poses as a 12-year-old girl to save on train fare. In a twist that's downright kinky, she attracts Milland, who's rightfully disturbed by his fascination with this “child.” Who needs Lolita?
