Coming Home

In this story an officer is sent off to battle in the Vietnam war. His wife stays home and volunteers at the VA hospital. Over the time that he's gone, she ends up falling into an affair with a paraplegic veteran partially out of pity. It sets up an interesting situation. When the husband returns he quickly finds out about it, and understandably freaks out. But then they explain the situation, apologize, and tell him to calm down. And he does.

I was annoyed at how easily he calmed down. The movie spends an hour and a half building up this situation, which then crumbles to pieces and falls into a nice orderly pile almost immediately.
