La vicenda del film si svolge al tempo dell'ultima presidenza di Roosvelt, negli Stati Uniti. Non sono tuttavia i fatti che interessano ma la psicologia dei due protagonisti: Katie, una giovane propagandista, convinta delle sue idee politiche, all'inizio del film in favore del comunismo e alla fine contro la bomba atomica, Hubbel, un giovane americano, benestante, che si è arruolato in marina ed è uno scrittore promettente, sicuro del successo, anche per gli incoraggiamenti di Katie. I due giovani, che si sono innamorati, convivono insieme, hanno una bambina e poi... si separano, avendo riconosciuto la loro incompatibilità psicologica. (fonte: amazon.it)… (plus d'informations)

Classics, both of them. Both plays, with decent actors--mesmerizing.
