Till the End of Time is a 1946 drama film directed by Edward Dmytryk and starring Dorothy McGuire, Guy Madison, Robert Mitchum, and Bill Williams. Released the same year as the better known The Best Years of Our Lives, it covers much the same topic: the adjustment of World War II veterans to civilian life. It was based on the novel They Dreamed of Home by Niven Busch. Unlike the soldier, sailor and airman of The Best Years of Our Lives, the male leads are all U.S. Marines.
