  Rock Hudson stars in this vintage 1956 melodrama as an eminent doctor who is reunited with the wife he had given up for dead. California surgeon Dr. Mike Parker (Hudson) is away at a conference in New York, having a drink in a bar, when he is introduced to a caricaturist named Victor (George Sanders) in the company of Mike's German ex-wife Lisa (Cornell Borchers). Lisa, panicked, darts from the bar and is run over by a car. As Mike treats her wounds and aids her recovery, the story of their love affair, marriage and painful parting is retold. Lisa, now living under an assumed name, went missing, presumed dead, eight years earlier after being trapped in the Russian quarter of post-war Vienna, where Mike was serving as a US Army medic. Visiting her father, whose home lies behind the Iron Curtain, Lisa is arrested for breaking a curfew. Word leaks back to the Allied side that her father is dead and, fearing the worst, Mike is persuaded to return to America to raise their young daughter Suzy (Shelley Fabares). Back in the present, a still frail and recuperating Lisa agrees to accompany Mike back to his California home, but Suzy gets hysterical, refusing to believe any suggestion that her mother can have come back into her life. Can the family be pieced back together, or is it best for everyone that they leave the past behind? Directed by Jerry Hopper (and an uncredited Douglas Sirk), a young Clint Eastwood also makes a fleeting appearance as Mike's lab assistant in one of his first screen roles.

  The Big Trees (1952): Kirk Douglas plays Jim Fallon a hard-nosed lumberjack intent on making his fortune from California's famous giant redwood trees. The territory he has designs on though is inhabited by a God-faring colony that beg him not to strip their land of the mighty sequoias. Initially undeterred he ignores their pleas but soon discovers that there are others even more ruthless than himself who also want to oust the settlers. With violent confrontation inevitable Fallen slowly comes to question his own unscrupulous nature and finally makes an unexpected alliance. The Big Lift (1950): This film is one of the best true-life adaptations of an historical event - The Berlin Airlift. It was made on location in Berlin with the full cooperation of the US Military who actually played the minor acting roles with star Montgomery Clift. The Big Lift does a good job of showing how ordinary soldiers and people can have divided loyalties and wrestle with the adverse situation that befell them in Berlin at the time. Truly a time capsule of Postwar Berlin
