Here Comes the Navy is a 1934 romantic comedy starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien and Gloria Stuart. It was written by Earl Baldwin and Ben Markson, and was directed by Lloyd Bacon.
The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. Of historical interest is that a portion of the filming took place aboard the battleship Arizona, which was sunk by the Japanese on December 7, 1941 at Pearl Harbor. Further, portions of the film also include shots of the dirigible USS Macon, a year before the accident that destroyed the dirigible with the loss of two crew.
