Fredric march is the stern judge here forced to deal with his wife's terminal illness. Interesting to note that at no time in the film does the term inoperable brain tumor spoken despite the fact that this is the problem facing Florence Eldridge, the judge's wife and real life wife of March.
Our judge is forced to reexamine his attitude and ethics in this excellent moral dilemma.
Eldridge is in fine form as the doomed wife and Geraldine Brooks is perky but on spot as the daughter.
The ending may be viewed by some as a cop out once it is revealed how the wife really died. Yet this solution may also cause an ethical dilemma.
