Wow... I'm in love!

I mainly saw this film because I am a huge Irene Dunne fan. But, I was shocked! This was on of the best films that I've seen in years!!! The messages are fabulous, they can't get any better! And the sincerity that all of the actors/actresses have is unbelievable! Spencer Tracy, who I've never really followed, was super! He had a great character, and the chemistry between Pete and Dorinda was just... ahh! Irene Dunne was amazing too. She is a great actress, and it shows through in this movie. She seems so true and real in this film. Van Johnson was quite good also!

I'd recommend this movie to anyone! Of course, it doesn't quite realistically protray WWII, but that's not the point of the movie. It's the kind that makes you stay up all night just thinking about over and over again. It's a tearjerker too...

Hopefully they put it up on TCM soon!

Getting involved is so... so... involving.

Yes, it is teriffic and Irene is teriffic! Keep requesting all of Irene's movies on TCM....maybe we will get her movies restored some day soon!

We need to write to TCM maybe Gibson or anyone you can think of to take some interest in Restoring her movies, especially When Tomorrow Comes and Together Again.
