Movie Reviews

Cinema Sight - 10/10 by Wesley LovellIn a vital period of film history, war films ran the gamut of topics, none more fascinating or heart-wrenching as those of the lives of the people left behind at home.
Goatdog's Movies - 7/10 by Michael W. Phillips, Jr.I cherished the film's three-hour running time because it gave me time to get to know these people, even love them a little.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevySelznick's schmaltzy tale of the heroic behavior of one "typical" American family during WWII boasts noble political values, but it's devoid of many artistic merits.
Under the Radar - 5/10 by Austin TrunickSome could potentially find it too sentimental, but the tone is comparable to what you'd find in one of Frank Capra's movie of the era ... Since You Went Away is a sweet film, and it's a true surprise that it's not better-remembered today.
TIME Magazine - 5/10 by James AgeeSelznick placed a big bet on Shirley Temple's comeback and she pays off enchantingly as a dogged, sensitive, practical little girl with a talent for bargaining.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 5/10 by Tim BraytonColbert is too good, and the script (though bloated) too full of lovely details about small town American life in the '40s to reject it outright.
User Review - 10/10 by I don't know wA definite favorite for me. This movie showed me the many facets of the home front during World War II. It moved me with sweetness, humor, tragedy, love, and hope. The film's theme echoed through every scene. I loved how the camera passed people in crowd scenes, it paused briefly to give ear to their individual lives as they spoke. And it was all so real. In this movie, there isn't that and-it-all-worked-out feel. People miss trains, romances cannot be fulfilled, triumphs are small and unglorified, loss is real, and expectations are not always fulfilled so grandly. The relationships are unique, not cliché, and very much like what you'd find in real life. Tears have never felt so wonderful when you are filled with inspiration and hope.
User Review - 10/10 by Eric PTruly a great film. It's horribly sad, and magnificently happy, all at the same time! The acting is impeccable!
User Review - 10/10 by Jim HClassic film about the homefront during World War II as Claudette Colbert struggles to makes ends meet and raise two daughters (Jennifer Jones & Shirley Temple) while her husband is off to war. Great supporting cast features Joseph Cotten, Monty Woolley, Agnes Moorehead and Robert Taylor. Long, but enjoyable and an interesting look at life during this period of time.
User Review - 10/10 by Rich EA star-studded cast in an under-appreciated film about a family left behind when their father/husband heads off into WWII. It is especially poignant since when it was made, no one had any idea when the war would end. Some great music from the time is featured and this has THE MOST BEAUTIFUL black and white cinematography you will ever see anywhere.
