  • I’m 77 years old and I have a brother in Utah who is 96 or 97 years old. He owns his own plane and still flies it himself. I live in Texas but when my granddaughter and I went up there to visit, he took her up in the plane and even let her fly it for a short time, just so she could feel how it felt. Many years ago he was in the Air Force and he’s been flying ever since then. ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️

    Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr at their very best. I had the pleasure of working with Mitchum as an actor in Hollywood near the end of his career, and he was a joy to behold. Casual, genuine and a force of nature. He was not only a remarkable actor, but also a fine human being. They don't make actors like him anymore.

    I remembered this movie and just recently saw it on youtube. It is one of my favorites. Both Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr had such a wonderful chemistry together and their movies were always great, especially the Sundowners. Also I have always had this THING😄 for Deborah Kerr. She was just such a classy beautiful woman.

    This was my parents war. My father was in the Royal Navy. My mother worked on Spitfires commuting from Winchester to Southampton a mere 14 miles. The bombing of Southampton rendered the city unrecognizable from day to day my mother told me.My father was away for 2 years when my mom was pregnant with their first child, my older brother. She was relocated to a less dangerous place to have her baby. My brother was was a toddler when dad came home. I came along after the war but remember the bombed out areas and the ration books still being used when I was a little girl. This movie brought back memories of my wonderful parents, not that I don't think of them daily. I wept, this was a time when they were in their prime, just, starting their marriage. Thank you for this movie.

    I am 80 years old and a German. This people did not fight for their country alone. They fought as well for us and I thank them for helping my generation to grow up in freedom.
  • This was a wonderful movie. Robert Mitchum, Deborah Kerr, more of my favorites. Red Buttons was wonderful.

    I’m 86, and that was right up there with the best film I’ve ever seen. RIP Robert Mitchum.

    Nice movie. Really enjoyed. Mitchum never lost it. Great actor. Oh how I miss great actors, and great movies.
  • @The2010EMERALD
    Robert Mitcum and Deborah Kerr... "Heaven Knows Mr. Allison", "Grass Is Greener", "The Sundowners". They were both amazing actors and it certainly was a magnetism between them.

    They don’t make good movies like this so much anymore. This is the perfect movie for Memorial Day.
  • I went to Normandy, France with 35 students and 5 other fellow teachers in 1997. It was a sobering experience to see row after row of white crosses interspersed with some Jewish stars showing all the young American soldiers who died on French soil during WWII. The French showed such great respect for our soldiers with the sacred burial ground at Normandy. There is a sign as you enter that says "Silence, Sacred burial grounds." Our students, who were giggly teenagers, made not a sound as we walked through Normandy. This film reminded me of Normandy.

    This movie is a true jewel! Robert Mitchum was such a wonderful actor, always believable no matter the role. Deborah Kerr superb, as always. So many gifted actors in this period piece. The story itself ran the gamut of emotions, from joy to sadness to heart-warming. Well done!!

    What a great movie saw it on TV when it came out in 1985 Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr were fantastic
  • @dianejens7054
    Great movie, enjoyed seeing Kerr and Mitchum together again as older actors.

    Never forget...they gave their lives so we could be free. Thank you for your unselfish service and may God bless you always. RIP.
  • What a delight. Kerr and Mitchem still gorgeous and still give a touch of old Hollywood while showing the beauty of a lifelong romance. Great movie, great cast. Thank you for sharing 🌸
  • Two of my all time favourite actors.deborah Kerr and mitchum both have the quality of making their parts believable. Just natural born actors. Rest in peace both of you.
  • This movie got me missing Dad. He was my hero and one of our U.S. heroes as well. Dad flew bombing missions over Germany. Shot down, never knew what happened to his gunner. His parachute got hung up in a tree when a troop of soldiers showed up at about the same moment he released himself from the chute. He was a POW for the last 3 mo. of the war. Survived a death march. Saw Patton roll in to proclaim the war over & they were free. He wasn't big on Patton as he did not think he was the best strategist and he was pompous. He respected Col. Sutherland. Dad was a consummate pilot. Never knew he was a star basketball player, at his little h.s. until, through complete happenstance, I met a woman who asked me if I knew him. It was apparent she had had a big crush on him. She said that while other boys had pin ups on their bedroom walls, he had pictures of planes on his. I didn't ask how she came to know what was on his bedroom walls. Probably totally innocent. Shortly after he retired after 21 yrs of service, he got a job flying a helicopter. in Guatemala (cold war). It was fortunate that in his day pilots didn't have to specialize. And, a son of a logger could grow up to become a pilot. Leaving out some other stuff and still overlong. 😂 God bless our patriots.
