For the Boys

Old wounds are opened on the eve of an awards presentation when it is discovered that the two recipients of the lifetime achievement award, singer/entertainer Dixie Leonard (Bette Midler) and comedian Eddie Sparks (James Caan) refuse to appear together. The film goes on to chronicle the past triumphs and conflicts of the two former USO performers as they appeared together overseas during World War II, the Korean Conflict and the Vietnam War.
