Customer Ratings & Reviews

Soldier in the Rain is a B&W comedy starring Jackie Gleason and Steve McQueen that came out in 1963. The story revolves around two buddies in the Army, McQueen as a supply Sergeant and Gleason as his superior officer. Tuesday Weld costars as a ditzy teenager and Tony Bill also appears as McQueen's screwball sidekick. Plot synopsis aside, I just wanted to own this movie as a collector of Steve McQueen films. This film is one of his least popular as it was overshadowed by the assassination of JFK and also because McQueen wasn't that popular in comedy driven movies. This film isn't offered on Blu Ray Disc, and probably never will, so this your best bet for seeing this film, as I have not seen this movie available on any streaming platform. This a very basic DVD by the way. in fact it's actually a DVD-R that just has the disc art printed on it. Only the main feature is included - there isn't even a scene selection menu. Still, for anyone that is a fan of this film and wants to own it, this is the only way.

good movie they were indeed a good team in this movie
