If you love a good old fashioned weepie.....

...then watch this ! Frederic March, Merle Oberon & Herbert Marshall excel in this mawkish wartime tale of love at the time of WW1. The cast is excellent, the storyline less so , but doesn't detract from the cinematography and pulling of the heartstrings. Indeed, be prepared to get the tissues handy for the last few scenes. Has great affiliation with films like Random Harvest in which you yearn for that happy ending. It's nearly 90 years old now, looks dated , but those classic films had so much more sentiment than todays crop of cgi-driven movies. It's true, this was the golden age of the movies alright !
