Military service and the toll it takes on soldiers and their families serve as the theme for this thoughtful wartime family drama produced by Samuel Goldwyn following the success of The Best Years of Our Lives. WWII vet Martin Greer (Dana Andrews) reenlists to serve in the Korean War, a decision his wife (Dorothy McGuire) strongly opposes. Meanwhile, their son (Farley Granger) could be drafted at any time -- something he's none too happy about.
