TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The role of Singleton was initially planned for Ann Richards, but when Jennifer became available, Richards ended up playing Dilly, Singleton's friend.

"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on April 22, 1946 with Joseph Cotten reprising his film role.

This was the third of four consecutive best actress Oscar nominations for Jennifer Jones between 1944 and 1947.

The film opens with the Joseph Cotten character, Alan, writing a love !etter for a friend. The hand and hand writing pictured is that of David O. Selznick. He had not written or produced the scene, but because he had both of the film's stars under contract and had loaned them out to Hal Wallace, he managed to micromanage himself into the film.

Included among the American Film Institute's 2002 list of 400 movies nominated for the top 100 top 100 America's Greatest Love Stories movies.

Popular Dialogues

"Singleton: I think very few people are happy. They wait all their lives for something to happen to them - something great and wonderful. They don't know what it is but they wait for it. Sometimes it never happens. What they want is the kind of spirit I found in those letters. A spirit that makes life beautiful. I love that man. I loved him more than my own life. I still love him. So you see, I couldn't have loved Roger Moreland, the man I killed."

"Allen Quinton: You are so calm, it is so contagious,you... you are so happy Singleton: I will tell you the secret, just two words, "Be yourself". You are afraid of that, everybody is. But I have no choice, I can't be anything but myself."
