It shows a view of the hardships faced by ex-GI's in obtaining housing and employment after WW II, this surprises most of us. The movie was made in 1947 and captures a slice of American history that is unknown to most of us alive today. Now that I have cried on everyone's shoulder, let me talk about why this is my favorite all time movie. ![]() ![]() I am planning to burn a DVD from my tape, but what I wouldn't give for a good copy. Each year I scan the TV listings, hoping against hope, that some station will run it. Unfortunately my VCR was not working properly and my copy is very poor and getting poorer each year. One year WTBS played it and, since I had by then purchased a VCR, I taped it. Myers I went through withdrawal, not being able to get 44. It became a tradition with me to watch it. In the early 1970's channel 44 in Tampa would play this movie on Christmas day every year. ![]()
