The Rooster Posted December 25, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 25, 2019 Life on the homefront during ww2. A very good cast and good story..... Something to watch when you have time to watch it as it is a little over 3 hours long. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIH_xgdeHGk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwb123 Posted December 25, 2019 Share #2 Posted December 25, 2019 Excellent wartime movie with a less than subtle message about the patriotism of young women volunteering for war production work contrary to social norms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted December 25, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted December 25, 2019 Its a sad movie too. Consider the 15000+ killed in training just in the Army Air Corps.. in the states during the war, let alone all the combat deaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratasfan Posted February 23, 2020 Share #5 Posted February 23, 2020 This is a really good homefront movie! Claudette Colbert always pack a punch in her performance, and this doesn't fall short! Jennifer Jones is a bit over the top trying to act 18, but sounds more like 18 going on 6. However, I don't care for Jennifer Jones anyway, so maybe she would appeal to someone who is more of a fan. Monty Wooley, Joseph Cotten, Shirley Temple (more grown-up than her prime era!), Agnes Moorehead, Robert Walker, and others lead a very good cast. Just a bit of trivia . . . Robert Walker and Jennifer Jones were married in real life, although were separated at the time of filming. Personally . . . the finale is one of the most moviing homefront pieces you'll see. Miss Colbert does a long bit without even talking and if you aren't crying by the end . . . rewind and pay attention! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
