Review of The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) by Matthew S — 31 May 2007
The earliest example of the brilliance of ensemble casts, "Best Years of Our Lives" hits unconfortably close to home as the lives of rehabilitated soldiers plays out on screen like an NBC Nightly News interest piece.
Shot in a neo-documentary format with the upmost detail to realism and monotony, this film humanizes the most dehumanizing of occupations and places a face upon the struggles of American troops and their families.
