Ronald Reagan and First Lady-to-be Nancy Davis made only one film together. This is it -- Hellcats of the Navy(Wednesday at 11:15 p.m. ET, Turner Classic Movies), an otherwise forgettable 1957 World War II submarine drama/romance.

As one IMDb user review puts it, "The director should be spanked."

It's part of a full night of Reagan westerns and war movies closing out TCM's star of the month salute to our only movie star POTUS.
