Ginger Rogers gives a restrained performance as a quiet victimized young lady who is sent to prison after accidentally pushing her drunken boss out the window.
While on furlough, she meets Joseph Cotten, who is battle scarred. The two strike up a memorable friendship, and Rogers tries to keep it from him where she is going back to.
Tom Tully and Spring Byington are just wonderful as the aunt and uncle she goes to during her leave. She brings Cotten to their home and they accept him with dignity and kindness. They are a wholesome couple promoting wonderful family values. Shirley Temple is their teenager daughter, outspoken, but kind in this 1944 film.
Of course, the picture proves that you can't hide things; they have a way of coming out. Nevertheless, the performances by Cotten and Ms. Rogers are warm and memorable.
