Before going off to World War II, Frank Arnold (Richard Crenna) relocates his wife, Ann (Claire Bloom), and son, Joshua (Richard Thomas), to New Mexico. Joshua has a difficult time fitting in, finding himself a minority in a predominantly Latino community, and his mother doesn't fare much better, treating her loneliness with increasing quantities of alcohol. At length, Joshua makes some friends and begins to adjust, but bad news from overseas threatens to spoil what he's accomplished.

Margaret Hinxman Daily Telegraph (UK) All the right ingredients, only everything is overdone. Jun 8, 2020 Full Review David Elliott Chicago Daily News It is a formula movie that works because, even though it lacks that machine-tooled instinctive sentiment of the 1940s studio films, it tries very hard and it is full of occasional graces. Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press The leisure in the telling of Red Sky at Morning turns out to be merely sluggishness because the warmth and charm indicated in the material seldom come across on screen.
