Alright so along with It Happened One Night, I also saw Mrs. Miniver again. So here's my review for that.
Plot: Mrs. Miniver is a middle-class woman in England who lived a very happy comfortable life with her family. She lives his her husband, Clem and their youngest children Toby and Judy, while their son, Vin is home from going to his university and is also starting so fall in love Carol, the granddaughter of the Lady Beldon. But their lives begin to change when World War II starts and Clem and Vic sign up to fight.
Quite simply, this is a film that displays the joys and sorrows of life in England back in WWII. And boy do they show it. The first half of the film or so just develops the characters and displays how happy and simple everyones lives are. But then you get the second half were they get more into what happens to England during the war, and that's when this really becomes a good film. The suspense is pretty big, the tragedies will leave you utterly sad, it just leaves you giving a harsh but true idea about how their lives were and how hard things changed once the war began.
And that's my review for Mrs. Miniver. It's a well made film that really moves you into the idea of how harsh the change of english life was when World War II came, and is easily an enjoyable film and I think was right to have won best picture.
