Waterloo Bridge

At the start of WWII, General Roy Cronin, standing mid-span of Waterloo Bridge in London as he is set to go off to war in France, recalls that exact place in a time during WWI when he met by chance the love of his life, Myra Lester. Then, he was an Army Captain, she a member of a ballet troupe and school, their meeting during an air raid. He was set to return to the trenches in France the following day, by which time they knew that they were the ones for each other and they wanted to marry before his departure so that she could stay with his supportive upper-crust mother, Lady Margaret Cronin. But issues in their respective lives threatened a happily-ever-after for them. For him, it is the hazards of battle and the possibility that he would never make it back alive. For her, it was the ballet troupe's strict and uncompromising head, Madame Olga Kirowa, who expected all her ballerinas to focus solely on ballet, which meant no personal life. In Myra possibly needing to choose between the troupe or Roy and something else, that something else was never a certainty.
