The Halfway House (1944)
A truly lovely film

I can't understand how anyone could fail to love this film. It is touching not least because it was made while the war was still on, even if by 1944 the outcome was beyond doubt. There was a special magic in knowing that the innkeeper and his daughter were actually played by a real life father and daughter.
Yes, it is shameless propaganda and pulling at the heartstrings - but isn't that forgivable during the worst war ever fought?
SPOILER ALERT I only wish that people from the past would get in touch with me and let me know what the present situation is.
