Jithin K Right from the beginning, one thing was there that had to be looked over to enjoy the movie. Just because the actress acts without any makeup we have to believe that she is an ugly woman. When the characters started speaking like that it didn't make any sense. Having that placed in the center of the movie, it isn't easy to enjoy it, but I considered it was a different time and it's Hollywood, but still there should be something in the movie to come over that and there was. There is a beautiful scene after that where two lonely women talk about how the world takes granted a lot of things that a few don't enjoy which alone made this movie worth so much to me because of how much those exact words meant to me. But then again, the fake beautification, so that it could reveal the beauty of true love can be shown. The beauty in the eye of the beholder due to true love is an incredible concept but the concept of being ugly and not ugly that is used here is so stupid. Also, the guy gets a war injury and the girl is just ugly? Overall, there are some great moments that I loved and some aspects I hated. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/27/24 Full Review Celeste D This is a classic romance from 1945, and the cottage is a large part of the romance. Dorothy McGuire, Robert Young and Mildred Natwick play it so you live it, you are there! This is an excellent film with dialogue which so many films seem to have forgotten. If you like charm coziness sweetness romance and music this is a good film for you! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review Bonnie L What a lovely story showing us true beauty. Robert Young and Dorothy McGuire are so natural and convincing of the truth that love comes from the heart. It is because of the acting and beyond the acting.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/18/24 Full Review Raven M This is one of my all-time favorite pictures about being in love. Two broken people find each other and despite the brokenness make each other whole through love. It's said that love is blind, that it prevents us from seeing the faults of each other. That's only partially true. It can also open our eyes to the best in a person, some of the things that ambivalence doesn't allow others to see. But people who truly love one another see youth, beauty and vibrance no matter what's on the outside of a person. No how much time passes between people; true love keeps them forever the same person one falls in love with. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/30/22 Full Review Audience Member What a beguiling little film. A month after screening it I'm still sharing the storyline with others and they're hanging on every word. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
