Synopsis – What to Expect from “Private Benjamin”
Private Benjamin is a 1980 American comedy-drama film starring Goldie Hawn as a pampered, naïve woman who joins the United States Army after her husband dies on their wedding night.
The film follows Judy Benjamin (Hawn), a wealthy Jewish woman from a privileged background who is suddenly thrust into the military when her husband dies on their wedding night. She is initially appalled by the lack of amenities, the strict discipline, and the grueling training. She meets a variety of colorful characters, including the tough-as-nails drill sergeant, the sympathetic female captain, and the lovable goof-off, Private Montclair (Eileen Brennan).
Judy gradually learns to adapt to the rigors of the military and begins to gain the respect of her fellow soldiers. She also finds herself attracted to a handsome lieutenant (Armand Assante). Eventually, she finds the courage to stand up to her superiors and take control of her own destiny.
The film culminates in a dramatic rescue mission in which Judy and her fellow soldiers must save a group of American hostages from a foreign country. Private Benjamin is a heartwarming and humorous story of a woman who discovers her inner strength and courage in the face of adversity.
