Storia
After returning home from the Korean War, two young men named Gunner Casselman and Sonny Burns reunite in their hometown of Indianapolis. Gunner spent his time abroad during the war and now tries to convince his mother that Marty, his girlfriend, is good enough for him. Meanwhile, Sonny, who was stationed stateside, finds himself torn between his loyal girlfriend Buddy and the tempting Gale Ann. As they reminisce about old times and adapt to their new lives, Gunner and Sonny realize that they are outgrowing the lives they lived before the war.
