Mild-mannered Henry Limpet (Don Knotts) longs to serve his country during World War II, but he can't pass the Navy's admissions physical. Classified as "4-F" -- too small and too weak to be a soldier - Henry takes a trip to Coney Island where a magical wish changes Henry Limpet from a little fish in a big pond into…well, a fish! With a fin up on the enemy, Henry uses his new aquatic abilities to lead the Navy into battle as their ultimate secret weapon!

Mixing live-action storytelling with Warner Brothers timeless animation, this action-packed film has been digitally remastered for a viewing experience so crisp you can smell the sea air! Join Henry as he goes from sink to swim in the victory story that celebrates the hero in all of us!

Proving true to their word that standard releases aren't going away any time soon, Warner has announced a May 4th release date for No Time for Sergeants (1958) on DVD.

The longed-for comedy will retail for $19.97, but it's available at ClassicFlix.com for only $14.99. Bonus features are not yet known.

SYNOPSIS:
Georgia farm boy Will Stockdale is about to bust with pride. He’s been drafted. Will’s ready. But is Uncle Sam ready for Will?

In No Time for Sergeants, Andy Griffith is certifiably funny in the role that clinched his stardom. Wearing a friendly, wide grin, he ambles into the U.S. Air Force – and lots of folks’ll never be the same. They include pint-sized Ben (Nick Adams), big-city bruiser Irvin (Murray Hamilton) and a jittery aptitude tester (Don Knotts). Finally, there’s Sgt. Orville King (Myron McCormick), a don’t-rock-the-boat old-timer driven crazy by Will’s gee-whiz efforts at friendship.

Griffith, McCormick and Knotts reprise their winning performances from No Time for Sergeants’ smash Broadway run. Breezily directed by the veteran Mervyn LeRoy (Mister Roberts), it’s definitely time for entertainment!
