Have a box of tissues ready for the scene where Wilma helps Homer get ready for bed (dealing with his artificial arm).
That is one of the best and most sincere tear jerking scenes in movie history.
There are women today who are doing similar duties for the men they love who have returned from war. Love conquers all.
I'm glad you mentioned the wives and girlfriends who are sticking with their men even though they returned from the wars with grievous injuries. I saw a quadruple amputee on the PBS Memorial Day program who is engaged to marry his sweetheart. I only hope these unions endure despite tremendous obstacles.
