    Was there ever an actress more intelligent, more beautiful, than Irene Dunne? And never an Oscar winner. This one's a little hokey, but a beautiful double love story. The movie that made Van Johnson a star.

    I don't see too many old Hollywood movies like this with big name actors in a serious, romantic comedy with action. Very sentimental, and filed with chuckles, it also offers a view into a past world where men could get away with a lot more in terms of the way they talked to women...( read more). Good stuff. Also, it had some pretty impressive battle scenes for the time.

    Not the best movie in the world but Irene Dunne is in it so who cares :)

    Spencer Tracey plays an Army WWII fighter pilot / bomber who dies in action and comes back as a guardian angel for other fighter pilots. In the midst of that he keeps tabs on his "girl" that he left behind played by Irene Dunn who is being wooed by a young pilot played by a very...( read more) young Van Johnson. It's certainly a film indicative of it's wartime era - a fair little film at best but enjoyable because of the cast.

    Spielberg loved this film so much that he decided to remake it as Always.

    This was good, the movie "Always" with Richard Dreyfuss was a remake of this one.
