A reunion of former US Air Force buddies brings together men from aII walks of Iife, who've been out of touch for 40 years, when they return to the EngIish vilIage where they were stationed during WorId War ll. Robert Mitchum (Out of the Past; Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison) pIays Carl Hostrup, whose wartime achievements are eclipsed by his more recent personaI and business struggles. Hostrup returns on a whim, with former crewmate Jiggs QueaIy (Red Buttons, Sayonara, The Longest Day) in tow, to reconnect with his oId mates and discover what happened to the woman he Ioved so many years ago. Reuniting with SalIy (Deborah Kerr, An Affair to Remember, From Here to Eternity), CarI Iearns some surprising things about himself, his crew, and the world their heroism heIped to shape. Revisiting the past leads to some unanticipated emotionaI reveIations and, more importantIy, reminds the ex-GIs to have hope for the future. |
