Storyline

It's 1939 in the small English town of Penny Green, and events in Poland are about to change lives. Mark Sabre (Walter Pidgeon), a writer of school text books, has married Mabel (Dame Angela Lansbury) "on the rebound", after his real love Nona (Deborah Kerr) marries some one else. Just as war is about to break out, Nona returns home with husband Tony (Hugh French). Mable is sure she can hold onto Mark, though. But misunderstood good deeds on Mark's part turn life for him upside down when his relationship with a young girl starts tongues wagging. Soon, wartime casualties take their toll in Penny Green as well as on the front, as the death of fighting men affects lives back home.—Ron Kerrigan

Short Review

If Winter Comes is a decent film. It is the small English town of Penny Green and events in Poland are about to change lives in 1939. Walter Pidgeon and Deborah Kerr give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Victor Saville did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and romance.
