The Best Years of Our Lives (1946)
The Best Years of Our Lives made an impact when it was released back in 1946, both on the Academy with its numerous nominations and wins, but also on the movie-going public. William Wyler's film brought real-life issues of the men returning home from battle in WWII and dealing with acclimating back into society ... into the world they once knew, yet has changed. This is a special film full of important themes including social class, reintegration, disability, and friendship. With incredible performances by the entire cast, The Best Years of Our Lives is a great piece of filmmaking.
After almost eight decades does this film still hold up? Is it still worthy of the top prize at the Academy Awards? Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about The Best Years of Our Lives, as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 1946.
