.....today's Hollywood cannot make a film half as good as this one.
A truly great movie these days is rare for me, but I agree completely!
"I promise you before I die, I'll surely come to your doorstep"
I totally agree. What a wonderful love story. The eyes of love see only beauty. Mrs. Minnert said it so well - if her husband could come back to life after 25 years, she would still be pretty to him. I thought that was a powerful statement to inner beauty and lasting love.
shareI seldom have the patience to watch a movie on TV without switching back and forth between it and whatever else happens to be on another station, but tonight this film [which I've seen several times before] held me enthralled all the way through [again].
I'm afraid if it were made by today's shallow, superficial Hollywood, we'd see the young couple having plastic surgery to make themselves physically attractive to one another, rather than learning to see each other through the eyes of love.
Dorothy McGuire just lit up the screen in anything she did.
