Description
"The book examines the making and reception of the film "The Best Years of Our Lives"; notable for its treatment of PTSD, the film brought conversation about this disorder (then called shell shock) to the forefront of post-war America, helping the nation reflect on the problems faced by returning servicemen and how best to help them reintegrate. The book also details how the movie was conceived, filmed, and received, as well as its influence on later films"--,Provided by publisher.
