This is a moving and ominous film made in 1943. I made reference to it in my post of a few weeks ago, Vichy America. Wikipedia calls "This Land Is Mine" a "propaganda-tinged war film." I call it prescient. The story rings true for many Europeans who survived the Nazi occupations of WWII. Charles Laughton is brilliant as the timid main character, Albert Lory. Maureen O'Hara was 23 years old.
