Walter Pidgeon plays the father.....Greer Garson.....the wife. It’s a neat old film about the early part of the war. It was made in 1942

That was a favorite film of my mom's, she watched it many times on TCM. Greer Garson, who is one of the all-time great movie stars, won the Academy Award for her role in Mrs. Miniver. She was nominated for an Academy Award seven times and in five consecutive years.
Another favorite of my mom's, and mine, was Random Harvest, also with Greer Garson. Random Harvest is a story about a man who has an accident and gets amnesia just before he's about to move into a new home with the love of his life, Greer Garson.
