Anzio, Italy, 1944. Allied forces storm the front line, while fighters patrol the skies, keeping Germany’s Luftwaffe at bay. Nurses tend to wounded soldiers as the air raid siren wails and prepare the field hospital for another attack.
Florence, 1945. Through the restaurant window a handsome Italian and a beautiful British nurse sit hand in hand across the table. It is easy to see they are in love.
London, 1966. Two lonely vagabonds huddle in a shop doorway, shielding themselves from pounding rain and relying on each other for warmth. |
