Kitty Vane, Alan Trent, and Gerald Shannon have been inseparable friends since childhood. Both Alan and Gerald are in love with Kitty, who in turn has been infatuated with Alan her entire life.
Gerald and Alan are drafted into World War I. They return home for ten days, during which time Alan proposes to Kitty and she joyously accepts. Despite his own love for Kitty, Gerald gives the couple his blessing. However, the newly engaged couple's happiness is cut short when Gerald and Alan are ordered back to the front the very next day. Kitty and Alan search for somebody to marry them, but there is not enough time. They decide they do not need to marry officially, and agree to spend the night together before Alan must return to the war.
No commercials. Absolutely wonderful viewing without interruption.

Yes: I Remember Mama, and Roman Holiday (with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn) and To Kill A Mockingbird. Thank you! 🌹
Great I will definitely watch the film 😊
True Talent. Don't make movies like this anymore. Beautiful movie.
Wow...I sure wish this 71 year old body of mine could wake up and get up so quickly and cheerfully as the young girl did at the beginning of this film...LOL..!!
This was a very touching film about loving someone enough to let them go. This is unselfish love of the highest order.
I'm 73, when I watched the 'balcony' scene I had the exact same thought - how the young beautiful Ms Oberon sprang up after kneeling next to Fredric March ...
I marveled that I ever could do that as well.....❤ these love movies & I'd never seen this one
Ms. Oberon along with Norma Shearer, Ms. Vivien, Ms. Greer & gosh so many were lovely, beautiful & so very Blessed in their talent. I'm so grateful for those of you that are able to find these treasures. Please please find more for us all. Bless you, Peace be with everyone, *Isa*

Yes totally 💯
And with you Isa🌹
Love anything with Fredric March. Merle Oberon gave a great performance. Thank you for uploading this gem.
I love them both
@@joanl4830Me too. I especially do love Merle Oberon.She's just so exquisitely beautiful, I think, and such a fine, natural ladylike actress, as well. I'm just becoming a Frederick March fan. Isn't it fun having Wonderful New things to still discover at this late date?! 😊
You must try The Best Years of Our Lives, another opportunity to see Fredrick March at his best.
God I love those three!!!💞💞💞 Frederic March is one of my Favorites!! Such great acting by all in old movies!! There is just nothing better to watch , than an old movie!! Love love love them💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
I KNOW me too..even when i was a litte girl
@@karenhill3970Me too! The movies today are full of one liners, and quick witted lines that fall flat. There is no development of the characters, and they are unlikeable. Morals have been lost and the scenes are too graphic with nudity and gruesome visuals that leave me feeling ashamed to have witnessed them, besides the foul language and the use of God's Holy name used repeatedly as a cuss word that hurts my soul to hear it. So, I decided to never see any of them again. I am so grateful for these beautiful and wholesome movies that have a good moral story and fine respectable characters.

A must see movie! Beautifully portrayed through the lens of the camera.
Outstanding performers -the beautiful Merle Oberon ,
the talented Frederick March and the young handsome Herbert Marshall and others.
A heartwarming story that fills one with tears with an unexpected surprise ending .
Most enjoyable 🙏🏻😊

The image for women was so strong and classy back then. Beauty was an accessory to character, and character was what mattered. The image we promote of women now is sort of trashy by comparison. I was born too late! 😢
There are more women now, but not nearly enough ladies. Just my opinion.
@@kevino4846 I agree.
Based on this film?
Agreed, the real beauty shined with very little, or no makeup whatsoever ! This actress, Rita Hayworth, Joan Fontaine, Carol Lombard, Vivian Lee, Thelma Todd, Fay Wray, Joan Blondell, Francis Dee, Ida Lupino, Carol Landis and so many others. Pure charm and deep beauty. No caked up face paint necessary😒🤔 ❤❤
🌬💀🏴☠️
I beg your pardon - have you been hanging out at bars, gentlemen's clubs and smokey pool halls?
Class has been redefined but it has not been erased.
😅 Today's woman wouldn't have left Allen and Bro to go it alone she'd be fight along side them.
And if being a lady means letting others suffer the perils of war while I comfy and safe at home not knowing for years - I guess I'm not a lady.
Fredric March is one of my TOP favorite actors of all time! He was so handsome!!
I feel the same way about him too.....!!!!
Fredrick March is an amazing actor. His best is "The Best Years of Our Lives". But handsome....not really. Hugely talented and skilled! 🎭📽️🎭
To me he was handsome.@@girlfromthebronxbywayofelb7288
That was a real tear jerker, beautiful ending!!
Nice story.!!!oh how I love those bold black and whites. Their faces moving and telling the story with expression. True Actors. We dont have that anymore, they have gone on and left a little piece of them in these old films. Thank you Channel for a very entertaining day.!
Very sweet, Fredric March such an awesome actor ❤,this is a true gem 💎
I'm a mid-century old-fashioned. I LOVE these movies that were 'old' when I was born!
Love the fashion Oberon wore and gosh, wish women had that style and sense of self now.
And I wish women who choose to be homemakers were treated with more respect. It's an honorable profession.
Fantastic movie. Never saw it, never heard of it. Miss Oberon was alomost the most beautiful, charismatic personality ever..Couldn't really guess hat the ending would be, but it was perfect.
I'm 79 and it's July 5, 2023 in St. Joseph, MO, USA.
I never saw it ether.
I too live in the state of misery....I mean Missouri😉
Happy 80th Warren.

Thanks for such a great movie!! I had to watch the last 3 minutes about 3 times with tears in my eyes! That’s what you call being in LOVE!!!❤😢😊
Absolutely!!
♥
Lucky Merle:: being adored by both Fredric March and Herbert Marshall. Nice work if you can get it.
Funny, I thought the guys were lucky😉
Merle Oberon is one of my favorite actors of this era ...She was truly so talented & beautiful ..Loved her in "Lydia" !!! Herbert Marshall and Fredric March Made it an all star cast - poignant and lovely movie.. Thanks (Wish I could find "LYDIA" , MOVIE - if anyone knows where )
Thanks. LYDIA, ok Sandra.

Hi, it’s on RUclips
@@flechavelozrapido4 6th 1😊
Wonderful movie with three of the great actors of that era.
I’ve always voted Vivian Leigh as the most beautiful woman of her day in Hollywood and England and around the world! 👩🏻 But Merle Oberon is either a very close second, if not a tie! Both actresses were so talented as well, and both began receiving starring roles in film approximately the same time.....Oberon in 1933 (“The Private Life If Henry VIIII”) and Leigh receiving four small roles beginning in 1935, then her first big role in “ Fire Over England”, in 1937. I’m sure I’ve seen every film both of them have starred in! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The casting of each role in this gem of a film is perfect.....even those playing the Aunts and Grandmothers! As far as the male leads, as a woman I don’t know WHICH of the two leading men I would have chosen. 😍😍 Great story line as well.
Thank you so much for posting, God bless you for your kindness. 🕊🙏😘✝️💕💜🌹👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️!!!
Both actresses were Anglo Indian Vivien Leigh was born in Calcutta
They are two of my favorites too. Vivien was also in Storm in a Teacup.
Agree, both such beautiful women. Linda Darnell could tie with Vivian Leigh I think, The Mark of Zorro 1944 I think, Ahhhh lovely films, thanks for providing!
Nice post. For me it is definitely Vivien Leigh who is both my favorite regarding talent and beauty. There are others that might sometimes compare, but never for long... Except maybe Joan Fontaine..
If I were magically given the choice I would choose to look like Merle over Vivien however the most beautiful to me I have ever seen an actress look in a film is Dana Wynter in The invasion of the bodysnatchers. Her looks defy belief in that film.
Nice little story with a great thread of morality and well produced considering it was 1935. Amazing to think they would have had no idea that WWII was just around the corner.
No, I think England was aware and nervous about what was happening in Europe and Germany. Didn't Hitler come to power in 1933? By 1936, he was bold enough to bomb civilians in Guernica, Spain in cooperation with Franco. I think the purpose of these movies was to get the population ready emotionally for the build up that was coming.
Unselfish love of the highest order, as commented below. All three. This film remains my favorite for this quality, moving me to
tears throughout. The three actors are divine, their faces sublime with emotion contained or expressed.
It has actually inspired my own long relationship, acknowledging in these times of female independence that I cannot live happily
without my beloved, how beautiful life is with him, how fortunate we are.
Thank you Radio Veloz.

wow! So so good. Made me cry .
Wonderful movie! Merle Oberon's face is jewel like in it's beauty, and Herbert Marshall was never so handsome. Fredrick March is always good, and the story was original and moving. What a treat.

A true classic of true love and friendship they were terrific actors and very good looking the dressing styles were fantastic the ending was very touching so well done one of the all time moving finishes to any movie many thanks for bringing it to us this was so enjoyable❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can see why she was nominated for an Oscar. Beauty, talent, and great range make Merle Oberon a top 10 actress all-time.
Mr. March can play ANY role!!!!
I loved watching this movie! They don't make movies like this anymore, where you focus on the actor's skill rather than special effects, violence, cursing and nudity. Modern Hollywood could take some lessons from these old movies! 😄👍🎬🎞️🎥
This was such a good movie. Thank you for posting it.

Omg this is my first time watching this movie and I love it so much! Oberon such a queen and Fredric March, oh boy, I love that man more everyday
Design for Living, Frederic March, Gary Cooper, Miriam Hopkins 1933. I think you'd like it too.
@@kathleenb1947 I already watch it. A favorite too ❤️

There is a movie with Doris Day that I have not seen in many years. It is called "Midnight Lace", with Rex Harrison and Doris Day. It is a great thriller. I would certainly appreciate it. Thank you so much @@flechavelozrapido .
What a beautiful masterpiece. This is wonderful. Many, many thanks.

Oscar nomination for Merle. According to Wiki: A mixed race woman who passed as white, Oberon became both the first Māori actress, and the first of Asian ancestry, to be nominated for Best Actress.
Māori?
That's noted on her Wiki.

I always thought she was of Indian (as in India) heritage! Wow, thanks for the info! Wasn’t she just about the most beautiful woman??
Well, I am sniffling. I wept my way through this entire film. Loved every minute of it.
What an ending! True everlasting love!❤. Sweet movie!
Omg I am tearing up!
You'll want to see this one. It's a tad melodramatic for my taste but the actors are all in top form, and altogether excellent. March,Oberon and Marshall are superb as always. I wish the print was better, but I'd rather have it a little fuzzy than not at all. I'd like to say it doesn't matter but the truth is an excellent print makes all the difference. So, though too melodramatic, especially towards the end, and too fuzzy a print, it's still a great and highly enjoyable film, and I repeat, don't miss this one!!!

A perfect classic. xxxxxxxxxxxx

It is a real shame that Mere Oberon felt she had to conceal the fact that she was Indian or Anglo Indian
She also become very rich during the IIWW. So some suspected she worked as a spy. I red it in her biography.
How do you know that ?
@@stevenfromer3816 Read her biography.
@@melianna999 A biography is different than an autobiography. A biographer can write whatever they want, true or not.
@@kevino4846 They can't. they can be prosecuted for lies.
This movie is a KEEPER!! Melted my heart...so nice to find a GEM like this in an old movie you never saw before!!! She was never lovlier than in this movie!!

@@carolann5338 Agree, It was unusual even for Hollywood. Nice, clean story.

Aaaaawww...poor Gerald. Can't help but feel sorry for him.
I think he probably ran off with Mrs. Watson😊
Wow. That was good! Thank you so much!

He certainly made up for the mistake he made not granting the leave. ❤

A classic tearjerker - a bit too sentimental for my taste (I prefer Bette Davis in DARK VICTORY). But a great team, from the three main actors to director Franklin, screenwriter Hellmann, Gregg Toland's cinematography, Alfred Newman's score, and Richard Day's Oscar winning art direction.
The young man who interrupts the meeting and later apologizes to March looked awfully familiar. That's Douglas Walton, who although never an A list actor had significant roles in a number of major films of the 30 and 40s, including CAVALCADE (an early Best Picture winner), THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (as Percy Shelley), MARY OF SCOTLAND, MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, NORTHWEST PASSAGE, SCARFACE, THE LETTER, MURDER MY SWEET, and THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY.
Wonderful movie✨
That’s how my husband and I first married , I was 18 and he was 24 , we have been faithfully happy and in love it’s been 54 years , 5 months , since then , we had many difficulties, to get through , but it can be done.
Yeah, it can be done ... for SOME people. That's the way of the world. Well done to you.
Love can go anywhere
Love can do anything
Love can change
Love is the key to our existence
Just need to know when to let go
If it comes back it means it was meant to be
If not we should find other happy ending
Ty for the movie
I enjoy it very much

What a beautiful movie a beautiful ending
Merle reminds me of beautiful Linda Cristal from the TV series High Chaparral.
A wonderful film.
😥 Excellent!👏💐💕
Poor Gerald, loses the girl......twice!! Wish there was a time machine, so I could pick up the pieces with him :)
If you must impose your logo on the film it should be much smaller and not in color on a black & white film.
This looks good 👍
Ha ha somehow I bumped the mouse. They had come home on leave, went back to the front, and 30 seconds later Merle and her Grandma were preparing for them to knock on the door, as they had returned from war. I thought, " Wow they sure speeding through this. Then 15 minutes later it's over.
Now that's funny😅
That was a wonderful movie ❤

First, the funny stuff: the sound effects guys back then were probably dying to use a new sound- high-pitched 'outer space' sound of the falling bombs - given the cast, I wonder how it made it into a good film. At 11:41, the trees (Topiaries) in the background look a lot like some in a Dr. Suess book, and a big tree to the right of them looks like a 6 year-old drew it. First rate acting and a good story, too.
Merle Oberon was not dressed in any way similar to women in the World War I Era, other than that it was a gripping film.
@@ValeskaTruax One of her gowns was a bit too modern. She was a stunning beauty, though.
