Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best films produced about veterans returning home after WW II. The acting is absolutely fabulous. A thoroughly enjoyable film for the whole family.Movie Review: Relevant and Realistic.
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie chronicles the return home of three soldiers who previously didn't know each other, but as it turns out are all from the same home town. They immediately bond and we see how their lives develop back home from the war days. Each one of them struggles to readjust. One is permanently injured, the other wanting to do more with his life than his previous "soda jerk" job, and the third wondering why his children have grown up. Throughout the film I thought the character with the most distinction was the wife of the banker. She seems very sophisticated all throughout. The movie starts to get a little long about half-way through and then the ending seems a little abrupt. But it is a very relevant film, especially nowadays to any soldiers returning from Afghanistan, and a very revealing film. As it provides insight into life as a returning soldier. Movie Review: For Returning Soldiers
Summary: 5 Stars
This film is a "must see" for anyone who has a family member or friend returning from war. War changes people and this film captures the change. Beautifully charactered and performed.Movie Review: The Best Years of Our Lives
Summary: 5 Stars
Great movie, and it was in good condition, and the seller sent it very quickly.
Summary of The Best Years of Our Lives [VHS]
Winner of seven Academy Awards, including best picture, director, actor, and screenplay, William Wyler's brilliant drama about domestic life after World War II remains one of the all-time classics of American cinema. Inspired by a pictorial article about returning soldiers in Life magazine, the story focuses on three war veterans (Fredric March, Dana Andrews, and Harold Russell in unforgettable roles) and their rocky readjustment to civilian life in their Midwestern town of Boone City. Capturing the contradictory moods of America in the mid to late 1940s, this three-hour drama spans a complex range of honest emotions, from joyous celebration and happy reunion to deep-rooted ambivalence and reassessment of personal priorities. A movie milestone when released in 1946, The Best Years of Our Lives still packs a punch with powerful, timeless themes. --Jeff ShannonHaunted by the Past Video
