34. "The Best Years of Our Lives" (1946)

This highly regarded homefront drama is considered the gold
standard for soldiers-returning-home movies. Acclaimed director
William Wyler followed up 1942's "Mrs. Miniver" with 1946's "The
Best Years of Our Lives" (now two World War II Movie Night
selections), sweeping the Oscars with both. Witness the
overlapping tribulations of WWII vets Fred, Al, and Homer, as
they try to pick up where they left off... asides include pulling
life's ejector seat.
