    I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Sure, it is not perfect, to include the lack of picturesque sites along the way, but the story and the acting is superb. From Anne Baxter flipping from happy to a sad drunk to Tyrone Power's character figuring out his way in life to becoming an inspiration to the whole story. About a million guys would have done anything to wed Gene Tierney's character but Tyrone wants things his way and likely the most moral and ethical way or not at all, yet he judges no one. The story is a bit unfinished but hard to expect too much from such a long film already. Don't be too concerned about any lack of perfection, just enjoy the show and enjoy just how well this 1946 film looks - like it could have been made 2 days ago. Amazing!
