I love that movie.
I’ll watch anything with Greer Garson in it. Adore her.

Garson won the Oscar for Mrs. Miniver, but for my money she didn't do half the acting in that as she did in Random Harvest, which came out the same year. Surely she deserved the Oscar, but they gave it to her for the patriotic movie about the present war, rather than the one about the previous war.

Random Harvest is my favorite Greer Garson movie.
Wonderful old movie!

Pecos National Historic Park in Pecos New Mexico, just outside Santa Fe. I think they now have daily tours of the ranch house. It is also a very interesting place, with history stretching back to Paleo-Indian times, including one of the few Civil War battles in the western states (Battle of Glorieta Pass).
The ranch house is on a small bluff overlooking the Pecos River, which starts in the mountains nearby and runs all the way into west Texas.

I agree completely. I watch it a couple of times annually, and the director made the deliberate attempt to feature her marvelous acting. He, and she, succeeded handsomely. I so admire her portrayal, I'm smitten. Just call me "Smithie."

Sounds nice. I don’t want to tour it, I think I want to buy it and live there. :)
