DESCRIPTION:

War correspondent John Davis faces drama every day: London aflame from German bombs and the personal sorrow that he and his wife can never have a child of their own. Then John meets Margaret and Peter, two traumatized war orphans who need him as much as he needs something to make his life whole. Robert Young is John and five-year-old Duse Margaret O'Brien is Margaret in an acclaimed wartime drama that is both tender and urgent, a sensitive film that never falls prey to sentiment thanks to the skill of director Maj. W.S. Van Dyke II (The Thin Man), the delightful rapport between Young and the children and the power of a fact-based story that transcends its era to speak to the universal need for family.
