    Additional Information
    Perhaps the most memorable film about the aftermath of World War II, it unfolds with the homecoming of three veterans to the same small town. The leads all touch emotional truths: Loy seems able to express longing, joy, fear and surprise - mostly with her back turned - in a particularly poignant welcome home. The movie never glosses over the reality of altered lives and the inability to communicate the experience of war on the front lines or the home front. A landmark achievement. Winning a clutch of Oscars for Best Picture, Direction, Lead Actor (Frederic March), Screenplay and remarkably, WWII vet Harold Russell, who lost his hands in the war, is the only person to win two Oscars for the same role, Best Supporting Actor and a special Oscar "for bringing hope and courage to his fellow veterans through his appearance."

      • Compelling story, excellent production, understated and engaging acting.

        A very well made film telling the story of three US servicemen as they try to adapt to civilian life and the dramatic change of circumstances following their combat experiences in World War 2. The lead actors are very convincing in their parts and many returning servicemen must have identified with them and their struggle to fit in to domestic life. The production is excellent, external shots being shot in real time 1946 with their home town of 'Boone City' looking just the part, representing a successful, bustling town in post-war USA. And who wouldn't want to visit Al's bar, where Hoagy Carmichael resides at the piano! It is a long film, just short of 3 hours, slow-paced but engaging throughout. Probably best viewed in one sitting as I found it dragged a little towards the end when I ...
