Mrs. Miniver (1942) more movies like this

directed by William Wyler
featuring Greer Garson, Walter Pidgeon, Teresa Wright, Dame May Whitty, Reginald Owen

Lassie Come Home (1943) more movies like this

directed by Fred Wilcox
featuring Roddy McDowall, Donald Crisp, Dame May Whitty, Edmund Gwenn, Elsa Lanchester, Nigel Bruce

Female dogs tend to shed while in heat; this is why all the collies who've played doggy heroine Lassie in the movies have actually been well-disguised males. A magnificent animal named Pal was the screen's first Lassie in 1943's Lassie Come Home. Set in Yorkshire during the first World War, the film gets under way when the poverty-stricken parents ...
