Louis Hayward is "Steve Earley", one of those folks you might have met at university and taken an instant dislike to! He is young, handsome, good at sport and generally the kind of person we all loathe! Well, he relocates from Cambridge University at which he excelled at rugby union ("rugger") to train at the West Point Military Academy at which he excels at just about everything too - much to the chagrin of many of his fellow students who find his cockiness a bit too much! He does make a few friends, though - and a combination of his charms and quick wittedness also ensures that he attracts the attention of "Ann" (a fairly underwhelming Joan Fontaine). When he is finally brought to book for a misdemeanour, he refuses to resign and is thereby ostracised by his colleagues until he manages to join the ice hockey team and... Hayward is good in this, he has some decent one-liners and works hard to create the image we love to hate. The ending is just a little too twee, but coupled with some decent supporting roles from Richard Carlson, Alan Curtis as his nemesis "Strong" and Tom Brown as his mate "Drew" the film moves along fine with just about enough star quality to keep it enjoyable.
