I was 11 years old when my father took what was then our complete family to downtown Detroit to see this movie. It became a family favorite, and after VCRs came out, I was able to give my brothers and sisters the ultimate Christmas gift...their very own copy of "The Long Gray Line."
The acting in the movie was superb. Tyrone Power and Maureen O'Hara became their characters. We laughed, cried, and talked about it and could always see new aspects to it.
It will always remain my favorite movie ever, and one that brings back family memories to me. In fact, I think I will go watch it now. It's refreshing to see a time when being a United States citizen would mean so much. And "The Star Spangled Banner" brought tears to your eyes, and the American Flag was treated with reverence and respect. God Bless America! Marilone
