Based on a story by Cheavens, source author of "Penny Serenade" (1941). Tessa (Baxter) leads an impoverished family holding a dinner for a soldier returning from war. They don't receive the soldier they expected, and the charming stranger Sgt. Eric (Hodiak) quickly involves himself. The film was reprised for radio by Lux Radio Theatre in 1945, with original starring actors performing.

Shot on location in Florida.

8 x 10 inches, one slightly larger, two single-weight, glossy, and one double-weight, matte. Very Good plus, faint discoloration to the matte still, small surface chips and brief creases to the glossy stills.
