Heaven Knows Mr Allison

Fox War Classics

This beautiful romantic drama, set during World War II, co-stars Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr (whose performance earned her a Best Actress Oscar nomination in 1957).

Stranded on a Pacific Island, an Irish nun (Kerr) and a heroic Marine sergeant live a life of constant peril, hiding from Japanese troops who have a base on the island. Eventually, the sergeant falls deeply in love with the religious woman, which compels her to question her vows. With its surprising blend of suspense and humor, excellent performances and acclaimed direction by John Huston, this "unique and powerful" (Los Angeles Times) film is a true classic.
