Movie description
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: Myrna 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. 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."
