    Blindness

    "Bright Victory" came as a total surprise. The film is not seen as much as it should, because of its positive message. Mark Robson directed with an eye to detail. "Bright Victory" was adapted by Robert Bruckner and has a pleasant music score by Frank Skinner.

    In spite of taking place during WWII, the movie seems timeless right now because of the Iraqi conflict. We are shown an Army hospital where the young soldiers are seen rehabilitating and learning new skills for their permanent disabilities. The wounded men we see in the Army facility at Valley Forge, Pa., are being treated because of their blindness as a result of wounds received in combat.

    For a 1951 film, "Bright Victory", was light years ahead since the young G.I.s we see in the hospital have to come to terms with the fact they will not be able to see again in their lives. It's a credit to its director and screen writer to present this new reality the soldiers are going through with compassion and dignity.

    A great performance from Arthur Kennedy, one of the best actors of that era, makes this movie appealing. Peggy Dow, as the compassionate young woman who volunteers in entertaining the wounded soldiers, is a welcome presence in the film. Mr. Kennedy and Ms. Dow made the film even better because their no nonsense approach to the portrayal of these two souls that find one another in the worst possible circumstances.

    The movie also presents in smaller roles actors that went to have careers of their own. Will Geer, James Edwards, Jim Backus, Richard Egan, Murray Hamilton, Rock Hudson, and Jerry Paris play as part of the ensemble cast gathered for "Bright Victory".

    This film is worth seeing because it shows us how some people overcome a terrible fate in a way we never thought possible.

    Coping With Blindness

    Poignant account of blinded war veteran adjusting to civilian life. Though the premise has built-in emotional appeal, that fine actor Arthur Kennedy prevents the tale from becoming too sappy or even sentimental. Understandably, there were a number of these "adjustment" movies made after WWII, The Best Years Of Our Lives (1946), and The Men (1950), to name two. More than the others, I think, BV follows one man's (Kennedy) difficulties in re- integrating with family, love life, and community. Naturally, films of this type sought to be uplifting and optimistic in dealing with a devastating post-war problem. BV is no exception. Then too, the racial subtext is well-handled, bringing to the surface those inner qualities that are often overridden by outer appearance. In that sense, Larry's (Kennedy) perception is ironically sharpened by blindness once he figures out the lesson.

    The movie's well-made, using actual locations such as city sidewalks, VA hospitals, and train stations, all of which provide a realistic feel. Then too, what guy wouldn't like being helped along by the likes of Judy (Dow) who resembles June Allyson's sexy older sister. Too bad, her accomplished career was so short. Just as regrettable is the amazing James Edwards, one of the first Blacks to get dignified roles. Seems his pioneering career was over-shadowed by the equally charismatic Sydney Poitier.

    All in all, the movie surpasses its time because of the common humanity that appeals beneath one man's courageous struggle.

    A continuing lesson

    Of course I always loved Bright Victory, since my dad was one of the blinded veterans used as extras in the movie. I remember him telling me that Kennedy had dark contacts in, and would yell out to remove them as soon as a scene was over.My dad said he felt like calling out, "But I can't remove mine!" It is a wonderful story of many blinded vets, particularly at that time. A captain was accompanying my dad and another blind soldier, who happened to be black, to their homes in GA. When they came to the train station in DC, they were informed that the black man could no longer ride in the same car. Both the captain and my dad were outraged for this soldier who had also gave his sight for his country. A new car was added to the train, and the 3 soldiers had it all to themselves. I was proud of my dad and the captain for taking that stand. They are deceased, but the lesson of the train, and the lesson of "Bright Victory" are both stories I pass on to my child and to my students over 32 years.

    Very good drama, holds your interest

    This film was partially filmed on location at Valley Forge General Hospital (and NOT at the actual Valley Forge), in Phoenixville, PA. This hospital was a center for rehabilitating blind soldiers during World War II. Every enlisted man assigned to Valley Forge Gen. Hosp. after 1952 was shown this film as part of their orientation to the hospital.

    Some of the interior and exterior shots were done at the hospital. The scenes where the soldier walks toward blank walls was done at the outdoor handball courts at the hospital. Several ward scenes were also shot there.

    It was nice to see medics portrayed as something other than just battlefield personnel.

    I would love to have a video of this film, but such is not available.

    Well acted, and reasonably realistic.

    Kennedy is marvelous

    Reminds me more of Pride of the Marines than Best Years of Their Lives. Blinded returning vet has to readjust. Arthur Kennedy never was better than in this movie. The ending in this cynical age seems too upbeat, but such endings DID happen. See: The Men with Brando for another crippled returning vet film.

      Ten blind WWII veterans at the hospital appeared as extras and were advisers for this film.

      The locomotive pulling the train when Joe arrives home in Florida was not produced by American Locomotive Company until 1950, seven years after the actual event. Diesel locomotives were not used on local trains until after the war years.

      Larry Nevins: I told ya i wanted security, remember... well I was looking for it in all the wrong places. Nobody can ever give it to you Judy. That way, it costs too much, you gotta make it for yourself.
