Imagine being 44yrs old and only learning about this superbly magnificent actress yesterday[24/6/22] after watching It Happened One Night, which I truly enjoyed. The fact that she passed away in my country was a complete surprise to me. I'm sorry I never met her acquaintance. She died in 1996, one year after I would have graduated secondary school. This lady was truly a class act to say the least. They don't make them like her anymore⚘🌷
Interesting backstories with this movie. "Three Came Home" was filmed very early in 1950. When the filming was finished, Claudette Colbert was to have headed to San Francisco to film the opening scenes of "All About Eve." She was sgned by 20th Century-Fox to play the lead role of Margo Channing. However, she had an accident toward the end of the filming of "Three Came Home" and was unable to play Margo. That's when Darryl F. Zanuck, the head of Fox, offered the role to Bette Davis and the rest is history. One of the great tragedies of Old Hollywood is that sometimes great films like "Three Came Home" are ignored by their studios because the studio really wants to promote another film for Oscars instead. In this case, Fox successfully promoted "All About Eve," one of the great and historic Oscar winners of all time. "Eve" deserved to be Best Picture for 1950, but I wish Zanuck had not only tried to get a Best Picture nomination for "Three Came Home," as well as Claudette Colbert and Sessue Hayakawa. Colbert and Hayakawa were both magnificent.
I learned alot about people on both sides as the Japanese Colonel lost his whole family and even if he lost his children he had a heart for our 3 American children who he saw were digging in the garbage for their food. He cared enough to care as he would be cared for his children who were hungry. He said no child should have to starve. When I saw him sit in his lawn chair and watched them eat all they wanted of fine food,I then felt pain for his loss of all of his beloved children. The Keith s were reunited ,even after all of them suffered at the hands of those Japanese soldiers hands. They still by God s grace made it back to each other. Mercy Lord,O mercy I said on s prayer for my elder son who suffered by the hands of us at Bra isn s expense of lasting eternal pain and suffering. We were unfitbparents to beat our child ad we did. I asked my son for forgiveness and he said it didn t mater as time passes. The church said "Spare the rod and spoil the child". All of our children suffered mental and physical torture. My husband our four children 3boys and the eldest their sister who suffered an earache and still had to stay home while we did chores at my Mother-In-Law s farm that we were working to own one day. It never happened as his mom lied that with the money she wanted for it was earned,yet she wouldn t keep her promise to seel it to us. She sold the land of 160 Acres to Wausau Homes Construction Company to build expensive homes to the rich people. Our work was all for bought....
I lived in a North Idaho town of about 5000. Thanks God we had a movie theater, the Panida. I was 9 when I saw 3 Came Home in 1950. Admission for me was 15 cents. The movie had an impact. It has stuck with me and I still enjoy seeing it. Thanks for posting it.
What an amazing film! This was an astounding performance in any era! They really don’t have anything comparable now. I’m 60 but, nostalgic for a bygone generation of truly hardworking, brave and patriotic Americans 😢
September 11,1945, I was one year and one day old. I was born on September 10,1944, in the Moore hospital in Vernon, Texas. I’m a 77 year old woman now. I’m glad for the ones who survive, but so sorry for those who lost loved ones.
I love it too, and her. But boy times have changed: In the opening scene, she finds out she's pregnant and the doctor offers her a cigarette, then lights up himself. Goodness me! But the scene that has stayed with me over the years is the two kids, her son Georgie and his female playmate, eating paint because they are so hungry. All I could think was lead poisoning. So grateful I never experienced such deprivation, nor did my children.
She was supposed to have been pregnant. Possibly during this era in the film industry pregnancy was not to be shown. I also thought that maybe the author had a miscarriage due to the way she was treated. In other words this film is extraordinary.
Magnificent film. Can't stop crying for Colonel Suga. NOBODY wins in war. An injury to one is an injury to all. (Thank you for pointing out Agnes Newton Keith for us, Cetuspa)
My dad helped liberate the Santo Tomas prison camp in the Philippines. It held civilian men, women, and children. The people had been starved, abused, and many executed by sword or rifle with barbed wire around their wrists. Thankfully, the Americans arrived before the Japanese had followed orders: they were to burn alive all the prisoners in slit trenches that they ordered the people to dig. The commandant of the camp held hostages once the 800 Troopers of the 5th and the 8th US Cavalry arrived to liberate the camp. He threatened to behead the 260 men and women that he and his guards held hostage. Thankfully, the American commander of the liberating force, General William C. Chase, negotiated a hostage release in return for giving the prison commandant and the surviving guards safe passage out of the camp. Later, E Troop, 5th Cavalry escorted the commandant and the prison guards to the Japanese lines. Firing broke out. The 5th Cavalry killed the commandant and every last one of guards. My father, even 65 years later, would shed no tears for any of them.
Yes indeed because We Love GodJesusHolySpirit With All our Heart Soul Mind n Strength Forever n Ever y qué DiosCristoEspiritoSanto nos bendiga siempre y por vida y love thy neighbor Amén. Pasa bien hermano.
20th Century Fox was the studio that did Gentlemen's Agreement (anti-Semitic prejudice) and The Snake Pit (what they used to call an insane asylum - showing the treatment of patients ). Only 2 of the films of the 1940s. They also did The Grapes of Wrath. The movies were getting a conscience. Showing real people in difficult situations makes you think how you would feel- how you would react - how you would treat others.
Excellent movie with superb acting by Colbert. She should have been considered best actress. Tough year, 1950 for there were outstanding performance by women that year.
An excellent movie! Great actors, script and directing! They did a marvelous job portraying some of the horrors these poor people suffered! It’s almost unimaginable what so many suffered during this time! This ending was happy, but so many of their husbands didn’t make it back. Thank you 🌹
Miss Colbert's performance is a beautifully modulated display of moods and passions and explosions under most inhuman and unnatural stress and strain. And Mr. Hayakawa's calculation of the Japanese colonel is a rare accomplishment. But Patric Knowles is also excellent as the British husband of Mrs. Keith from whom she is early separated, and Florence Desmond is superb as a cheerful inmate in the prison camp. Indeed, a little fellow named Mark Keuning contributes immeasurably, too, as the 4-year-old son of the author to whom she desperately clings through her ordeal. Played against realistic settings, which vividly convey the meanness of the jungle prisons, and directed by Jean Negulesco for physical and emotional credibility, is a comprehensive film. It will shock you, disturb you, tear your heart out. But it will fill you fully with a great respect for a heroic soul.
My uncle was a baton death march survivor. He was taken to Japan. He reported they knew the end of the war came when the guards were no longer in the camp. They simply disappeared.
I read this book over 45 years ago. When I just stumbled onto this title it evoked strong emotions from the horrible stories. I don't have time to watch it right now so I will save it for later. I just hope they tell it like it is and not mess with it the way they do so many true stories.
Few people are aware that Sessue Hayakawa was the most popular box-office star in Hollywood in the early days of silent movies. He was also a Zen monk back in Japan. Fascinating character.
His role in the great movie, The Bridge on the River Kwai, as the camp commandant was coming in '57. He's also in Disney's Swiss Family Robinson - in a small part as the leader of pirates. What a great face he had.
@@petemichael4512 Holy COW, I had a complete brain cramp! I'd forgotten he was the camp commandant on River Kwai. A terrific actor. What a contrast between those two roles.
The Japanese are a great people, goaded into WW II as were the Americans in WW I (leading to WW II). Now the globalist elites who've organized and funded these wars are finishing us off.
Man alive! If I had a house in Hell and a house in Borneo, I'd rent out Borneo and live in Hell! Sheets of rain, hot, humid, how could a body take it? Typically great old fifties movie. Great stories, characters and photography.
Agnes Newton Keith: The novelist on whose book this film is based, as an English Woman, can be seen in one scene in a process shot standing behind Claudette Colbert who plays her in the film. The scene has Colbert walking along a pier to the Berhala Camp alongside another woman. I believe this is her at 00:29:30 & 00:29:27.
i thought Claudette Colbert was the best actress I saw. I think the first film I saw her in she played a nun. At the time I was in a catholic school for girls. So of course she was the best.
One thing I would like to know, not just about this story, but the wives of men in the pacific theatre in general, is why didn’t they leave before the Japanese attacked, they knew that war was inevitable and that internment was a possibility, especially in areas where there wasn’t any real military presence, and yet they stayed, waiting for the inevitable. If I was a husband I would sent my wife and children home long before it wasn’t possible, those wives had no reason to be there, distracting their husbands from doing what needed to be done, even in the early days of the war they knew that the Japanese would subject the foreign nationals to harsh and brutal treatment, I know that women were “made of sterner stuff” back then, but they were also non-combatants that should have been sent out of harms way, to my thinking they were irresponsible and irrational to stay, and unfortunately many of the women, civilian or military (medical personnel) religious figures (nuns, priests, missionaries) should all have been forcibly repatriated or evacuated to a safe area, but instead they were allowed to stay, giving the Japanese subjects to use and abuse. Thanks for sharing this film, and despite my long rambling comments I thoroughly enjoyed, hated, felt sorrow, angered, and many other feelings provoked by the almost tangible portrayal of what happened(albeit a sanitised version), the film, thanks again. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Peace Negotiations were going on in Washington right up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. The Japanese diplomats were still in DC. The attacks on the colonies in the Pacific occurred almost simultaneously. Although they feared what was to come, they really didn't anticipate the extent of the Japanese aggression. To them the War was in Europe. Hindsight is 20/20.
@@petemichael4512 The Japanese occupation of Nanking was brutal and well-publicized. It is remarkable, therefore, that more vigorous attempts not made to evacuate women, children and noncombatants from areas threatened by Japanese invasion.
@@petemichael4512 There was a British television show entitled "Tenko" that portrayed the hardships experienced by British, Dutch, and Australian women and children in Japanese internment camps after the fall of Singapore.
It's clearly referring to the fact they all live through the experience. I wasn't sure but as we got towards the end I was confident he'd live because of the title. I don't see what else it could mean.
They went easy on showing the actual brutality that went on in these japanese "death camps". This was candy coated to keep within certain motion picture codes.
See A Town Like Alice, the 9 hr version from Australia. CC movie is a sort of prelude when we expected dignity from enemies. Alas. Unfairness to the captors? Alas. No, I don't mean the last part. In the next version of this movie at minute 103 the women will show their tits, encountering Australians. And of course New Zelanders.
Thumbs down cuz I hate war n war movies! Especially knowing our government was fully responsible for it! JFK to 9-11( everything’s a rich mans trick) It has an I dian head thumbnail and over 3 hours long but tru to watch at least part of it and you’ll see the games that have been going on in the name of greed! I love the beautiful Doxolgy toward the end, It was what we sang every (wrong) sabbath in church. Ive always 💞 YHWH’s word!
You left out FDR who was dragged kicking and screaming into the war. Japan and Hitler took advantage of his neutral stance on the war to take over all of east Asia and western Europe before he entered the war. Millions of more people died because he was 2 years late to enter the war.
No truer words “ Whatever the rest is, theirs no differences in our hearts about our children”….So true….
The child actor who played Claudette Colbert's son should have gotten an Oscar. He was amazing.
Wow just wow very underrated film

Quite true. War knows neither respect nor selectibility. Our enemies in war are political enemies, not necessarily personal ones.
I love this movie. Everytime I watch it I still cry at the end, but they are happy tears.
I have watched this movie a few time's in my life. By the end of the movie, I always shed a little tear. Thank you for sharing this movie.

Great film. 'Hooray for Hollywood'.

Claudette Colbert is a great actress..all of her movies I have .. another movie is I WANT TO LIVE ,, SUSAN HAYWARD ,,GREAT WATCH IT
So this is the movie that cost Claudette Colbert the lead role of All About Eve. 🤔
The late great Sessue Hayakawa.
Choked me up at the end... And I am a 71 year old guy!
Odd, isn't it, that trucks were provided for most of the male internees but that the group that included Agnes' husband was allowed to hobble in?
I guess this movie was the dry run for sessue Hayakawa. The training wheels came off in Bridge on the River Kway".
