Rating: - "He's MY Mr. Davis!"

Rating: - I fell in love with this movie!

Rating: - A Poignant "Journey"
"A Journey for Margaret" is a "World War II film" unlike any other. It was filmed during the war, in 1941...before the attack on Pearl Harbor. The tale is told from the perspective of the youngest victims of the Blitz on London: the children who witnessed and survived the bombings.
"Journey"'s story concerns an American journalist (Robert Young) and his visits to a home for Blitz orphans. His concern for the children deepens as he is exposed to their strange and terrifying world. ... Read More
