Susan Hayward replaced Ingrid Bergman, her longtime friend, in this film. Susan stated "If Its Good Enough For Bergman it is good enough for Me". Susan was a supporting player in Ingrid's "Adam Had Four Sons" and always grateful for Ingrid's help on that Columbia film.
Susan plays a Doctor prosecuted for the euthanasia of a patient. This presented a personal problem for Susan as her husband Floyd Eaton Chalkley, a former FBI agent, was a devout Roman Catholic and with Susan's help the Chalkley's converted an old chapel to a thriving beautiful Catholic Church donated on land from the Chalkley's.
Our Lady Of Perpetual Help is the name of the small church (more like a chapel), Mr and Mrs Chalkley are both interred at the cemetery
Susan went to the Director and mentioned She was uncomfortable with the euthanasia theme and it was softened by MGM
Peter Finch co stars wth Susan Hayward. The movie is set in the British Islands the photography is awesome, and Ms. Hayward looks very beautiful.
Susan and co star Peter Finch were known for there professionalism.
PS. Susan turned down MGM's "Sweet Bird Of Youth". Hedda Hopper said it was a mistake writing "Susie made her fame playing shady ladies: Lucille Ball turned the star role down, as did Ava Gardner. Geraldine Page gave a brilliant Oscar nominated perf as a fading drugged up movie star. Other films Susan was considered for were the remake of Stella Dallas, ( no one could top the great Stanwyck), Elephant Hill with Rock Hudson and Heaen Tain with Deborah Kerr.
