फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Dennis and his buddies have been spending a cold, but relatively safe war so far in the Aleutians where the Japanese began an offensive, but are now stranded there. Someone in Washington decided to send his platoon to an area of actual fighting. Where does Dennis go, but to Pasadena as opposed to home. Pasadena is where the California Institute of Technology is and where Dennis attended school and he apparently identifies more with that town than where he is from.
Dane Clark accompanies Morgan and soon the two are involved with a pair of hometown girls, Eleanor Parker and Faye Emerson. Parker who comes from a large family has divided opinion about her wartime fling, opposition especially coming from Beulah Bondi. In fact what with wartime housing and travel restrictions it seems that the fates themselves are working against the romance.
There's a nice subplot going involving an older sister of Parker's, Andrea King and her marriage to sailor William Prince. King's been doing a little stepping out and isn't sure she didn't marry in haste as so many in wartime do.
Though The Very Thought Of You is dated as mores have certainly changed and arguably not for the better, the film is a nice voyage to a more innocent and hopeful time.
And then I saw this quite realistic dialog about picking up two girls on a bus - and following them - and their reactions! And then a very strange bickering family - unlike any I expected to see in a World War II film - where families are almost always peaches and cream.
And I thought, "well, this movie is different!"
It got better and better and better - primarily because you really are brought to believe that despite despite overwhelming odds, these two - Parker and Morgan - really do fall in love.
They're very modest, they've such limited hopes, and those hopes are so fragile - that you root for these two very gentle modest people so intently - as almost everyone they know - as well as all the worldwide events, conspire against them.
It's a very simple movie plot that is told with such verve, such overwhelming conviction by the participants fully invested in the wonder of the tale, that you are simply swept away. With low expectations, I just love it - and looked to buy it when I next came to the computer.
There are few movies that seem to bring people from another decade right into your home - real people with besetting problems and far from ideal surroundings - and whom you want to succeed so very badly.
Thanks to all who participated in this movie! You won no awards but you certainly won my heart!
There is nothing wrong with relating to some of the predictable ideals this movie outlines. I found myself getting lost in the era- the music, history, and politics of the mid 40's were all way before my time. Perhaps this is what drew me in... The romance between David and Janet is very sweet. As a result, the integrity of these main characters is very enchanting. What might seem on the surface as a predictable B-movie is actually a gentle and reassuring stroke of simplicity... a calm breath of fresh (and inspiring) air amidst today's loud and obnoxious box office hum drum.
Sidebar: A supporting actress, the later-famous Faye Emerson, had just married FDR's son Elliott when this film was released. Also, if you live in L.A., you'll enjoy scenes on the Cal Tech campus and on Mt. Wilson.
Offsetting the tender romance of the story is the edgy handling of the scenes with Parker's fairly dysfunctional family, which includes her bickering parents, philandering married sister, and developmentally-challenged brother.
This is a film deserving of a greater reputation -- and thanks to recent showings on TCM, that may already be happening.
क्या आपको पता है
- ट्रिवियाDuring filming, Eleanor Parker learned that co-star Andrea King had a husband away at war, just as she did, and that King lived far away from the studio. With wartime gasoline rationing factored in, Parker invited King to stay with her, as Parker's house was only a five-minute drive from Warner Bros.
- गूफ़During an outdoor scene involving the rental car, there is a brief instance of the reflection of an crew member being seen, perfectly centered, in the car's right passenger "vent" window.

Janet Stewart: Been out on a date?
Molly: Yes. I want to talk to to you, Jan.
Janet Stewart: I don't feel much like talking, Molly.
Molly: Alright then listen. I think I know what the score is. You went ahead and got hooked, in spite of my advice. OK, so it's spilt milk. You made yourself a lonely bed and you're willing to lie on it.
Janet Stewart: That's right.
Molly: It isn't right. It's all wrong.
Janet Stewart: Molly, please...
Molly: Well what kind of a marriage have you got? A quick kiss, a swift kick and bingo - you're a war widow!
Janet Stewart: Don't keep saying that.
Molly: What kind of a man is it who'd talk a girl into an overnight marriage, knowing he's going off to war? Didn't it ever occur to him that you may never see each other again?
Janet Stewart: It occurred to both of us. I know I'll see him again.
Molly: You got some special kind of magic you sprinkled over him? Don't you think there are millions of girls who want to know their guys are coming back? Don't you think I wanted Freddy back once?
Janet Stewart: Once? Don't you now?
Molly: Sure I do. But don't you realise you can forget how a man really looks and talks and makes love? After two years, Freddy isn't real anymore.
Janet Stewart: I'd remember everything about Dave, if we never saw each other again.
Molly: That's because you can still feel his arms around you. Wait a couple of months, baby, and you'll be making double dates with me, just like we used to.
Janet Stewart: No, I won't. Ever.
Molly: No? Wait'll you get sick of the family and the cold cuts and Mom's nagging. Wait'll the smell of the orange blossoms in the valley gets you drunk at night and you're so alone, you're sick to your stomach.
Janet Stewart: What do you think Freddy and all of the other husbands and sweethearts are fighting for?
Molly: Well I didn't ask him to go.
Janet Stewart: He didn't ask to go either. He went because there's a war to win and he is decent.
Molly: Meaning I'm not?
Janet Stewart: Yes, meaning just that. I've seen your lipstick smeared when you've sneaked in. Don't deny that you've...
Molly: That's entirely my business...
Janet Stewart: Oh, no it isn't, not when you butt into mine. I'd like to know how Freddy feels, away on a carrier for two years, wondering why you don't write. You and your being alone. How do you think he feels? I what if he knew you were spending his allotment on buying evening dresses for other fellows to enjoy? When he comes back, nobody'll blame him if he beats your head off.
