Remember To Live (1954)

Returning home after the Korean war, an ex-prisoner of war (Dane Clark) is broken and bitter. Not only the years in a Korean prison camp but the woman he loved didn't wait for him and married someone else. A young orphan girl (Judy Nugent) is determined to help him find his way. Directed by James Neilson (NIGHT PASSAGE). Originally shot for television, this sentimental slice of sop goes nowhere or rather goes exactly where we know it will go. The orphan is supposed to be adorable and gain our sympathy but I found her an annoying brat causing trouble. The POW gets involved with two women, the good girl (Barbara Hale) and the femme fatale (Cleo Moore) but, of course, we know who he'll end up with. With Dick Wessel and Paul Brinegar.
