Episode #367: Jimmy Stewart On Radio: Letter At Midnight
This week we continue with radio shows featuring the work of the legendary actor, Jimmy Stewart. The story recounts Pilot Tom Greer's transformation from an isolationist college student to a military enlistee after meeting a refugee. The play highlights themes of American identity, sacrifice, and the moral imperative to fight against tyranny during World War II, and shows a transformation in Oboler’s own work, from leaning isolationist in the late 1930s to a sharp pro-war turn when the United States entered the war.
