SOLUTION: Richard Herald Lauritz Melchior is a famous opera singer and father to Richard Herald II, who has recently returned from fighting in the war and now prefers to be known as Dick Johnson Johnnie Johnston. Dick has been engaged to socialite Frances Allenbury Mary Stuart since before he left for the war, but has been expressing some apprehension about marrying her. Mr. Herald wants his son to join him at the opera company, but Dick wants to enjoy his life now that he’s out of the army. Backstage at the theater, he sees a magazine featuring Leonora Nora Cambaretti, an aquacade star. Earlier, as it turns out, after Dick received an injury during the war, he stayed at a hospital where Leonora performed for the patients. Dick had yet to have his bandages removed from his eyes and head, so he couldn’t see Nora. Other servicemen described her beauty to him, as her family’s friend, Ferdi Farro Jimmy Durante, played on the piano. Thinking he was blind, Nora allowed Dick to touch her face and then kissed him, only to then find out that he was able to see. Nora is now performing as the star of the Aqua Capers show. Dick surprises her there, and he reminds her of their previous meeting by giving her a quick kiss, getting his nose twisted as punishment. Nora knows Dick is there to flirt, but she offers him a job with the show, but Ferdi convinces his friend Xavier Cugat to give Dick a position as a baritone at his nightclub. After an Aqua Capers performance, Dick and Nora go to dinner. Ferdi reminds her that she barely knows anything about Dick. At rehearsal the next day, Nora says before she can fall in love, Dick must pass inspection from her family back on Mackinac Island. Dick leaves with Nora while Francess mother, Harriet, meets with Richard and agrees to announce their childrens engagement, unbeknownst to Dick. On the island, Dick meets Nora’s grandmother May Whitty and niece, Deborah Sharon McManus, who warm up to him after he sings Grandmother’s favorite song, I’ll be with You In Apple Blossom Time. and Nora’s grandmother grants her approval of Dick for Nora. A bit later, Dick leaves to tell his father about his relationship with Nora and break off the engagement to Frances, which Dick has not told Nora about. Gordon finds the engagement announcement in the newspaper and shows it to Ferdi. Ferdi tell Nora about it, and she is heartbroken. Gordon arranges for her to stay somewhere Dick cant find her. Six weeks later, Mr. Herald arrives at an Aqua Capers rehearsal in an attempt to find Nora, but Ferdi will not tell him where she is. Ferdi goes to Xavier Cugat’s club to see Dick, who accuses Ferdi of being in love with Nora as well. Meanwhile, summer arrives on Mackinac Island and tourists are flocking there. Cugat’s band has a contract to perform at the Grand Hotel, and Dick goes with them. Deborah, knowing that Nora traveling with Gordon and Ferdi has arrived by boat, hurries to the hotel and notifies Dick, who loads Deborah onto her bicycle and together they ride to the Cambaretti house to speak with Nora. This trip, Nora has brought Gordon for her grandmothers approval. Dick and Deborah walk in, and Dick tries to explain all that has happened. Nora remains confused and upset and rejects him, so he leaves. Nora and Deborah both start to cry and flee upstairs, where Ferd overhears them. He invites Mr. Herald to the island, where he apologizes to Grandmother Cambaretti for placing the announcement in the newspaper. He also recognizes her from her old days as a performer in the circus. The two decide that their children should be married and come up with a way to push the two together. While Nora is at the swimming pool of the hotel, teaching Deborah to dive and swim, Dick begins singing Easy to Love with Cugats female vocalist, which makes Deborah jealous. That night, Nora decides she is going to go after Gordon, but Ferdi convinces her otherwise. Mr. Herald takes Grandmother to listen to Dicks performance at the hotel, where he convinces Cugat to fire his son and then begins to sing for the audience. He stops singing La donna e mobile and begins Easy to Love, during which Dick gets up and sits next to Nora, where they hold hands and snuggle.

PROBLEM: Fact1: Harold Calvert is sent on course to learn to fly new bomber, Fact2: other pilots cousin think has shirked duties by claiming engine trouble on raid over Ploesti oil fields, Fact3: Cal stands up for Tom, Fact4: Tom is furious and reprimands Cal for endangering test program, Fact5: Wolfe leads them to bases in China

SOLUTION: In 1943, Capt. Harold Cal Calvert Wendell Corey is sent on a course at Smoky Hill, Kansas, to learn to fly a new bomber, the Boeing B29 Superfortress. His instructor is his cousin, Major Tom West Forrest Tucker, an officer who the other pilots think has shirked his duties by claiming engine trouble on the raid over the Ploesti oil fields. Cal stands up for Tom when a crewman taunts his cousin in front of Helen Vera Ralston, a nurse that Tom has been seeing. Cal and the other students learn that the pressurized B29 can fly higher, faster and farther than any other bomber. On a test flight, when an overconfident Cal pushes a B29 higher than instructed, a sudden decompression nearly ends in tragedy. One of the crew is sucked out of the aircraft, but is able to use his parachute. Tom is furious and reprimands Cal for endangering the test program, which the Air Force brass is monitoring closely. Maj. Gen. Wolfe Walter Brennan finally declares that the pilots and the B29s are ready for combat. He leads them to bases in China where they will launch attacks on Japan. Cals first missions are harrowing, although the B29s prove to be extremely effective. When the group is transferred to Guam, Tom is reunited with Helen, who is also assigned there. Cal is flying continually on high altitude missions, but Gen. Curtis E. LeMay William Witney, the new commanding officer, changes tactics to more accurate low altitude raids that will produce more damage. Helen is slowly falling for the more heroic Cal, and when he and Tom are on a mission together in a mass raid on Tokyo, their B29 is hit by antiaircraft fire. With Cal wounded and Tom at the controls, the stricken aircraft barely makes it back to the base. Tom goes back into the fiery wreckage to save a trapped crewman, but is killed when the aircraft explodes. Several weeks later, as the war ends when B29s drop the most devastating weapon of all, the atom bomb, on cities in Japan, Cal and Helen remain together.

PROBLEM: Fact1: New York City area spends time off driving into city to be with his oldest from Schenectady Alan at gay bar, Fact2: David is singled out to dance by Mark, Fact3: Mark have sex with other men, Fact4: photographer named Jason divorced, Fact5: Jason takes pictures of David while telling him things to say other than cheese

SOLUTION:
The film begins as a minidocumentary of New York Citys 1973 Gay Pride parade and rally, with a young lesbian unabashedly declaring, being gay is a very natural thing. The action cuts to the protagonist, David Robert Joel, going through the ritual of being released from his vocation as a monk in a monastery. He then is seen as a public school teacher of English Literature in the New York City area, who spends his time off driving into the city to be with his oldest friend from Schenectady, Alan Jay Pierce at a gay bar. One evening at the bar, David is singled out to dance by Mark Curt Gareth, who portrays a businessman. They end up spending the night together, which at first seems like a onenight stand until David says hed like to see Mark again, and Mark agrees. Not long after, the pair begin a monogamous relationship, and David moves in with Mark. But when Mark wants to have sex with other men, the relationship starts to break down. He rejects the idea of modeling a gay relationship on heterosexual marriage, and he is irritated that David wants to keep pushing this romantic thing. Mark would rather have an understanding that either of them can have sex with other men when they feel like it, but this ends up alienating them from each other. Mark refuses to say, I love you until David playfully wrestles with him and tells him, Say it...again...once more for good measure. After a year, though, David realizes that the two of them are just marking time. The two go to Fire Island for a weekend in an attempt to spice up their relationship, and although David tries to please Mark by entering an orgy, he cant go through with it. After a fight, David temporarily moves in with his friend Alan, who gives David an objective perspective on what happened. In a later encounter with Mark at Coney Island, David finally realizes that there cant be a reconciliation, as Mark is more interested in sex than a romantic relationship. After a season of loneliness, David meets a divorced photographer named Jason Bo White at the 1973 Gay Pride rally which began the film. David and Jason go to Jasons apartment and talk. In Jason, a divorced dad, we meet another member of the gay community, one who was living a heterosexual life prior to coming out. He still socializes with his exwife, who goes with him on photo shoots. On a parental visit with their toddler son P.J. Jason tells his exwife that he is now seeing someone with whom he would be spending the upcoming Labor Day holiday. It appears that in Jason, David has found someone willing to pursue a romantic, committed relationship with him. Jason takes pictures of David while telling him things to say other than cheese, and the film ends by showing the two men together splashing naked in the surf on Cape Cod.
