A three-hour weepy extraordinaire, this 1944 offering from producer David O. Selznick (who also wrote the screenplay) was a tribute to all the families who stayed behind while their men went off to fight in World War II. Claudette Colbert is the mother of daughters Jennifer Jones and Shirley Temple; first seen coming home after dropping her war-bound husband at the train, she becomes the model of courage and strength on the homefront. The plot has a Saturday Evening Post feel today, as it follows the family's day-to-day life and struggles, whether with a crotchety boarder (a delightfully starchy Monty Woolley) or oldest daughter Jones's doomed romance with departing serviceman Robert Walker. They don't make them like this anymore and it's too bad. Nominated for a fistful of Oscars, it took only one, for its shadow-drenched black-and-white cinematography. --Marshall Fine

A beautiful melodrama. A stellar cast.
Yes it is from a past genre of film makers But as long as there is war this film will endure
The story remains the same old or new

Everybody does a great job in this black and white wartime film but it's just a very sad movie. If you like sad movies, this is your best bet.

The cast is tremendous in here; lots of big names. That's the good news, at least for most male viewers, because the bad news- again, for us males - is that this is a woman's movie from start-to-finish. For you ladies, this movie is gold!
From the moment Claudette Colbert comes home after seeing her husband off for war, the tears start and the women's soap opera begins. It goes on and on, too, because this film is almost three hours long. That is a lot of time for a lot of heartaches. ... Read More
