that love conquers all is not as fresh
as the morning milk but 1t is quite
easy to take.
Schsry's picture is based on Niven
Busch,s novel, They Dream of
Home, " set to the romantic ballad of
broken love from which its title is
fderived. The blending Of the two
might easily have been another
|cinenatic sentimental mess. Such
are the skills that went into its
making, however, that 1t is seldom
anything of the kind.
The principal theme of IT'LL the
End of Time" Is straight bOy-meets-
girl. The boy is a body sound Ma
rine back from three years IN the
Pacific, whose only battle hangover
is desperate kind of loneliness.
The girl is the widow of an Army
pilot, and even more acutely lonely.
The evolution of their emotional
states into the serenity Of. mutual
devotion is the films basic thesis.
Schary has given his picture
wholesome flavor Of what movie
goers cali "trueness to life" It's
people have pleasant middle-class
respectability and even manage toI
dress like it in spite of the Holly
wood convention that simple dress is
worse than carbuncles. The houses
they live in could have been built
by Wilson Wyatt and the places
they GO, chiefly neighborhood juke
spot, look completely plausible.
The incidental characters of the
Earle's picture add up to something
better than standard equipment for
such pictures. The bitter Marine
who lost his legs and the reckless
one whose skull is patched with
silver plate are both as real as Rob-
ert Mitchum and Bill Williams can
make them. That's quite real.
Miss Mcclure and Madison are
the most pleasant detailed assets OF
IT'LL the End of Time"
She is the epitome of all the nice
girls whose postwar dreams were
shot down by the Germans or the
Japs. She is brave and she is be-
wildered. And, she is bright enough
to know that her problem is gem
eral, and even that there are far
more insoluble personal problems in
the. aftermath of war. 1t is no re-
hash of two dozen other similar
characters Miss Mcclure brings OF. |
1t is straight, specific Pat Ruscomb,
and a warming person she Is to
meet.
That Madison turns out to be
worthy of her is the most pleasant
thing that could be said about his
performance.
