Told by way of a retrospective, we join John Mills ("Boswell") who has spent the last twenty five years - including those of WWII - trying to improve the lives of his mill town inhabitants. Back in the day, he is the editor of the local newspaper, and a town councillor, who finds himself defending the job opportunities of "Olivia" (Martha Scott), slated for a position as assistant librarian but finding herself the victim of prejudice. Her mill owning father had been responsible for the building of some of the slum housing in the town. The two fall in love and marry, but things start to take a more serious turn for the couple when an outbreak of diphtheria impacts on both their ambitions (for parliament) and their family leaving the couple separated, and him even more focused on enriching the lives of his local electorate. It is only much later, when conditions in one of her mills deteriorate and a strike looms, that they meet again and he - with the help of his friend "Dr. Whiteside" (Trevor Howard) starts to realise that some of the tragedy that has followed him throughout his life might not have been quite so accidental as he had thought. This film benefits from two strong leading performances and some solid supporting from Patricia Roc ("Julie") and Richard Carlson ("Charles" - the son of "Olivia" upon whom she has come to dote and depend). It's narrated by the writer (James Hilton) and that adds just enough to fill in the gaps as the story of ambition and sadness reaches quite a powerful and touching conclusion. Certainly one of Mills' better efforts, and together with offering us an interesting social commentary of post industrial revolution life in 1930s Engand, makes for a decent watch.
