What Swing Shift is

Jonathan Demme directs this saga of wartime labor and love. Kay gets a job in an aircraft plant while her husband is fighting overseas. Soon she is juggling friendships, factory work, and a complicated affair with a musician. It's a portrait of a woman's life, albeit a very movie-ish one.
