Description:
For sublime screen romance, look no further than this third Clark Gable/Lana Turner teaming. Even with no glamorous gowns in sight, Turner is at her appeaing best as a down-to-earth nurse who wins battle surgeon Gable's heart as they follow World War II across Africa and Europe. The problem is that Gable has a wonderful wife (Anne Baxter) waiting for him back home. Having entered the war as a self-centered society doctor, he finds himself humbled by the reality of war - and deeply, desperately in love with Turner. To its credit, the film paints no one as the heavy, only blaming the war for forever altering the lives of those who lived through it. This modern version of the Ulysses myth - a soldier, forever changed, returns home to his wife - says something genuine about American life through its tender tale of love and loss.

You can get all of the Warner Archive Collection movies at TCM for $17.99, instead of the Amazon price of $28.98. Even with TCM's S&H it's a better deal.

The character played by the great Clark Gable in this picture changes substantially from a man with a narrow, selfish view of life to a man who begins to see the big-picture and that being involved in people's lives and helping others is what life is all about. A good story about a man who changes from mediocre to good through experiencing the war. Gable plays a manly kind of dignified character who really comes around. John Hodiak's character is very good as well. Very good picture.
Rating: -
For fans of Clark Gable and Lana Turner, this is one of the best movies for both. Gable plays a Surgeon called into WW11, and Turner an Army Nurse. Gable is married, but the interplay between them is well acted and serious. The ending is sad, but inevitable. Anne Baxter and John Hodiak are excellent in supporting roles.
