with wwii over and movie studio quickly rush to focus on vet return home . the best year of our life be probably the best example . it portray various people return home and how they have to readjust not only to their pre war life and but to the overall changing world . probably the most interesting cast member be non actor harold russell . have lose his hand in the war and he play a man with hook where his hand use to be and and remind people that he want to be treat just like everyone else while he go on to win best support actor and a special oscar for the role and make him the only person ever to win two oscar for the same role . there will probably always be debate over whether this deserved best picture more than it a wonderful life and but i certainly think that they do a good job with it . very well do .
