4 out of 5 stars Lost in the Archives of Time   June 25, 2008

My mother used to talk about this movie when I was younger, and how she loved it. I finally found it on Amazon, purchased it, and invited her to watch with me. It has the look and feel of the old war (the Big One)with a slightly different twist--Ginger Rogers is a murderer on Christmas furlough. Shirley Temple is classic Shirley--neither impressive nor instrumental to the plot--as the teenaged daughter of Ginger's relatives. Joseph Cotten, suffering from battle fatigue, predictably falls for Ginger, rescuing her from a vicious dog and relying on her image to pull him through a perspiration-packed relapse. "I'll Be Seeing You" comes off more as a made-for-television movie, but because the people in the movie are major stars, they brighten the screen more than the lackluster plot could ever do. Overall, I enjoyed the movie, the company, and the quiet one hour and twenty-five minutes spent. I would recommend it for those who are nostalgic, but I don't believe it would stand up for the younger generation that craves blood, violence and sex on every frame.

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Love Story Set At Christmas   November 26, 2007
Antoinette Klein (Hoover, Alabama USA)

Ginger Rogers and Joseph Cotten are two troubled souls who meet on a train shortly before Christmas. It is wartime and he is a shell-shocked soldier on furlough while she is on holiday furlough from prison where she has been serving a sentence for accidental manslaughter. Neither is confident enough to share their own story, but they are attracted to each other and begin a whirlwind romance filled with love, laughter, and the normalcy they are both desperate to regain.

All good things must come to an end, and their furloughs are no exception. Will they be able to reveal their deepest secrets? Can true love find a way to work through the hurt and sadness? Can each accept the other's past and uncertain future?

This is an extraordinary movie and a wonderful love story filled with wholesome family life, compassionate characters, and a most realistic look at the battle fatigue experienced by soldiers. The stellar cast includes a teenage Shirley Temple and Spring Byington in her pre-December Bride days. For those of us who wish they still made movies like they used to, this is one to treasure.



4 out of 5 stars sweet romance   October 22, 2007

This is an above average believable romantic movie with an original storyline including a few surprises along the way. All the actors turn in strong perfomances. Even Shirley Temple is well cast. I especially recommend this movie for all fans of Joseph Cotton and Ginger Rogers. This may be Ms Roger's best dramatic role.
