The Best Years of Our Lives is the logical bookend to Mrs. Miniver, because it's about three American fighting men who have survived the battle, won the war and now have to face the years ahead. As he did often in his career, Wyler drew a practical template that later films about returning veterans would imitate. He had the advantage of working with a war that nearly everyone agreed was necessary and just ("nearly", because even in 1947 there were voices urging that the alliance with Stalin's Russia against the Nazis was a mistake, and one such character makes a memorable appearance in the film). But Wyler, who had grasped the dire urgency of the Nazi threat early on, was too much of a realist to ignore the human costs imposed by vanquishing such an enemy. He'd seen soldiers and pilots die in combat. He'd even lost a man under his command—and they were only making documentaries. On his return home, Wyler himself experienced the sense of dislocation and unfamiliarity so powerfully captured in Best Years.
