A reunion of former US Air Force buddies brings together men from all walks of life, who've been out of touch for 40 years, when they return to the English village where they were stationed during World War II. Carl Hostrup (Robert Mitchum), whose wartime achievements are eclipsed by his more recent personal and business struggles, returns on a whim, with former crewmate Jiggs Quealy (Red Buttons) in tow, to reconnect with his old mates and discover what happened to the woman he loved so many years ago. Reuniting with Sally (Deborah Kerr), Carl learns some surprising things about himself, his crew, and the world their heroism helped to shape. Revisiting the past leads to some unanticipated emotional revelations and, more importantly, reminds the ex-GIs to have hope for the future. (less)
