The men of New Zealand march off to war, leaving behind cities and viIlages filIed with women and loneliness. In time, new men come ashore: U.S. Marines facing uncertain futures in Pacific battles yet to come. And new Ioves - tender or tragic, transitory or Iasting - begin to flower. A consteIIation of actresses shines in a bittersweet James A. Michener story of sisters (Jean Simmons, Joan Fontaine, Piper Laurie and Sandra Dee) embracing Iove in a time of war, but it's the sensitive romance between a war widow (Simmons) and a jaded captain (Paul Newman, estabIishing his credentials as a screen heartthrob) that forms the tale's poignant heart. Under the sensitive direction of Robert Wise (who directed Newman the year before in his breakthrough Somebody Up There Likes Me), the memories of a lifetime are formed Until They Sail. |
