Until They Sail
I know I've mentioned this before as being one of my favorite Jean Simmons movies, but I just have to give another shout out to this screen. TCM played it again yesterday, to I recorded it and watched it last night. And I have to say, what a treat. It's the sentimental story of four sisters (Joan Fontaine, Jean Simmons, Piper Laurie, and Sandra Dee) living in New Zealand during World Ward II, and the trials that come their way as a result of the war, and as a result of the American servicemen who arrive. Also notable for one of it's co-stars, a dreamy young Paul Newman. The acting is fantastic, and I admit, it had me pretty weepy in places. Four hankies out of four.
