Oscar-winning performance from Cooper as the deeply religious pacifist boy from the country who became a much-decorated WWI hero. ‘The film does not glorify war… it stays scrupulously within the bounds of one man’s part in another war. But by showing what he found in the US worth fighting for, it becomes Hollywood’s first solid contribution to national defense.’ – Time, 1941
