The Enchanted Cottage on Blu-ray

Can two damaged, lonely people find happiness together? Can the love and inner beauty they nurture transform their outward appearance? When Oliver Bradford (Robert Young) returns hideously scarred from World War II, he leaves his fiancee, believing that no woman could ever love him. But Oliver meets Laura Pennington (Dorothy McGuire), a very plain young woman who thinks that no man would love a woman so lacking in physical beauty as she. The couple marry, more out of desperation than affection, and move into a small house that has served over the years as a honeymoon cottage for newlyweds. But the love of all the prior guests lingers within their home, and Oliver and Laura become beautiful whenever they are inside The Enchanted Cottage. Based on the play by Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, and first filmed in 1924 starring Richard Barthelmess, this 1945 production was met with critical and audience acclaim.
