Teresa

While stationed in Italy during World War II, reticent GI Philip Cass (John Ericson) fell head over heels for shy but beautiful villager Teresa Russo (Pier Angeli). Returning to America as newlyweds, Philip tries to carve out a life for them, but the stress of his service and the meddling of his mother (Patricia Collinge) might compromise their chance of happiness. Fred Zinnemann’s moving, long-sought postwar opus co-stars Rod Steiger, Ralph Meeker, Peggy Ann Garner, Bill Mauldin. 102 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
