Product Description:

Greer Garson gives a formidable Oscar-winning performance in the title role comforting children in a bomb shelter capturing an enemy parachutist and delivering an inspirational portrait of stiff-upper-lip British resolve. When Hitler did his worst Mrs. Miniver did her best. Year: 1942Running Time: 134 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA/CLASSICS UPC: 012569519626 Manufacturer No: 65196

A movie doesn't win seven Oscars for nothing. A glowing Greer Garson (Best Actress) commands the screen as Mrs. Miniver, a middle-class British housewife whose strength holds her family together as World War II literally hits their home. Walter Pidgeon as her architect husband seems to be the prototype for future TV dads in this affecting portrait of love--familial and romantic--during war. But the relationship between Mrs. Miniver's college-age son (Richard Ney) and the upper-crust Carol (Best Supporting Actress Teresa Wright) is filled with inherent drama--as the war speeds up their young love, it also has the potential to doom it. The 1942 film, which also won for Best Picture and Best Director, is filled with colorful characters, snappy dialogue, and sensational plot twists. Although you spend much of the movie dreading that one of the Minivers will become a casualty of war, when it finally happens, it's not what you anticipated. Exactly what you'd expect from a legendary film that lives up to its billing. --Valerie J. Nelson

Greer Garson is EXCELLENT in this WWII movie made in England. The trials of having a husband & son serving in the war, while at home having to venture to the bomb shelter with her 2 youngest children. The fears of the children are voiced while the fears of the parents are visible on their faces. This movie touches on faith, seeing the enemy as a person when a hungry German soldier slips into the back door, and the fears of life in the midst of the war. Very few movies encapsulates views from several ... Read More

Mrs. Miniver starring Greer Garson is a tearjerker, just recently watched this film and boy I was very impressed. This film won many Oscars including best picture and best actress. Garson is a pure gem, what a natural and gifted actress she was! She carries this film, her face says it all and who knew Walter Pidgeon was such a looker! Sad but deeply profound, I highly recommend giving this classic a viewing. Enjoy!

This isn't just a great story, Mrs Miniver is a history lesson. The film was released in 1942, when the Axis powers still looked so formidable that victory couldn't be seen for many years, if at all. So ... this was basically a propaganda film. What's surprising is that a film designed to inspire and ignite the populous could be so good. Beyond great acting and intelligent dialogue, Mrs. Miniver is a intriguing story about how people toughen up ... Read More
