I had bought this Movie about 3 months ago and just got around to watching it this weekend. It was a pretty good movie staring Shirley MacLaine & Christopher Plummer & Neve Campbell just naming a few. The movie is about a secretly married to a WWII service man who crashed and died in the hills, near Belfast, Ireland on 24 March 1945. The Group was the 401st Bomb Group, 612th Bomb Squadron and the aircraft was I'll Be Seeing You 43-38733 which was shown on the B-17G aircraft prior to crashing. The person that had wedded the two was not a priest and she was married for a number of years to someone else and he had passed away at the begining of the movie starting the events that would set her free but that was not her only secret....

I liked it a lot.

You're right Don, that was NOT "her only secret"...OR yours! 😮
I read in the reviews that Mischa Barton has a few topless scenes in the movie :shock:
...with that said, Ed you better run and get a copy before they sell out! 😉

Just ordered three Don! Two for my Uncles and one for my guest room collection.
Looking forward to watching it on my vacation next week! 😎
It sounds like a good mix of history, drama and romance... 😃

Thanks Don,

Josie 😛

Smiley abuse...I know, I know...I just had to! 😉
