After concert pianist Lissa Campbell learns that she has a serious heart problem. she vows to enjoy what time she has left. On taking her first holiday she meets Kit Firth, a pilot on leave whose vision has been impaired due to a bomb explosion while he was on active service.
Contrived plot is played with such conviction by the actors that it's enjoyable to go along with it in spite of feeling manipulated. Fine music score including the 'Cornish Concerto' that had a life in concert halls afterwards. Quite moving, if you're in the right mood for it. Everyone needs a good cry now and then!
