Synopsis

A star-laden adaptation by three writers and three directors of Anton Myrer's sprawling novel tracing the lives of five Harvard roommates of the class of '44 and follows them through the next thirty years. King, Boxleitner, Albert, Shea and Nouri are the five in this three-part six-hour miniseries, with Deborah Raffin the romantic focus for each at one time or another. Several stars, like John Houseman and his thirty seconds of screen time, provide the now-traditional TV cameos. An Emmy Award nomination went to Pete Rugolo for his music score.
