Harry S Dec 18, 2018 Rock Hudson plays a military doctor who falls in love with nightclub pianist, Cornell Borchers. They marry and have a baby and all seems right. That is, until Hudson's seething jealousy wrecks everything that they had established. Tragedy tears the couple apart and Hudson must raise their daughter alone. Years later, fate brings the couple back together and their daughter (played surprisingly well by a young Shelley Fabares)must come to grips with the mother she had never known. See more
Poe M Mar 29, 2017 It was cute at first but then Phil was acting like a dick and there were too many misunderstandings in the story.
