Here a WWII veteran named Harold Russell, who lost both his hands in the war, plays a character with the same affliction with Hoagy Carmichael, the composer of "Georgia On My Mind", who plays a buddy of his.
This movie, "The Best Years of Our Lives" follows three veterans returning from the war, and they all have a serious affliction. Alcoholism afflicts another veteran and PTSD the third.
I captured this to show a friend, but now I see that nowhere else is this scene found on KZfaq (as if this writing, May 2021), so here ya go.
