I now consider this movie as being at the top of my personal collection. If I was in Eve's place I probably wouldn't have even considered turning my back on marrying Danny , even knowing he was going back overseas again. Every moment with him I would have treasured.
I have seen Ann Doran in several movies but, none of which affected me so strongly. When her husband (played by I'm sure Hugh Beaumont) came home, I cried as Jenny greeted him home and didn't allow his blindness affect her love for him. Then Eve placed his baby in his arms, which was sad because he would never see his child and had Jenny describe the baby to him. Jenny was a very strong woman, I too would be praising God for John's return
Walter Sande was also unforgettable in hi roll of Stiff and Mary Trent as Cissy was very good also as she portraid herself as an irritating person with her constantly correcting Stiff and pushing him away as he wanted to be affectionate after they were engaged.
Barry Fitzgerald was priceless when he excitedly came into the apartment asking for Jenny, then having John led in prior to his wife coming into the room and seeing her husband standing there.
